build/pkgs: Add some missing install-requires metadata, add some documentation to the developer's guide

[mkoeppe]

Dmitry Marakasov (repology.org) points out that some metadata are missing in our build/pkgs/.
repology/repology-updater#1118 (comment)

We fix this so that the SageMath distribution can be listed as a repository on repology.org

Should there be a space between >= and the version number?

In one case there is no space, in the other there is one:

texttable >=1.6.3

wheel >= 0.36.2

Wondering whether this matters here.

Thanks for catching this, I want to standardize on the format without the space.
