temporary problems when pulling and updating #11

To make things easier for contributors, I removed the submodule method.

What this means is that if you've already cloned the repo using git clone --recursive... you are likely to have problems the next time you use mk/linux/git_update.sh

Everything should be set right now, but I'm sorry to say that it will be easier for most people to re-clone the source and data repo into a different different directory.

The new instructions have been documented

https://github.com/ZetaGlest/zetaglest-source#try-the-game-without-contributing

People who have cloned forks for the purpose of contributing may have an easier time, but I've also updated those instructions as well:

https://github.com/ZetaGlest/zetaglest-source/blob/develop/CONTRIBUTING.md#set-up-the-repositories-locally

My apologies for the inconvenience.

Jammy, I wrapped some lines. I've been told by project maintainers that
when possible, keep lines in md files less than 79 chars or so. The
files render the same when viewed through GitHub, so it's more for
readability when editing.

You'll find though there are times to break those rules. ;)

Another change... @Jammyjamjamman and I thought separating the source and data repos would be a good idea.

Links to changes are shown in zetaglest/zetaglest-source@534d2ae

If you've cloned the repos within the last week, the only thing you should need to do, from zetaglest-source/ is

mv data ../zetaglest-data (be sure no zetaglest-data/ dir already exists or data will be moved into zetaglest-data/)

To verify zetaglest can find the new location, just run zetaglest from its usual location.

If you run into problems, just give us a holler
