Documentation for Sonoff RF bridge needs to be updated

re PR: arendst/tasmota#

Following the instructions here:

https://github.com/tasmota/docs/blob/master/docs/devices/Sonoff-RF-Bridge-433.md

I was not able to flash the RF chip. I got an invalid file signature error trying to upload the hex files given by Tasmota.

When I downloaded the Portisch firmware directly from here:

https://github.com/Portisch/RF-Bridge-EFM8BB1/releases/tag/0x04

It worked just fine.

I would update it myself, but I don't know how, or perhaps have permission.

@oldgeezy You probably didn't performed the download correctly
Steps are :

• Follow the link to https://github.com/arendst/Tasmota/tree/master/tools/fw_SonoffRfBridge_efm8bb1
• Click the the most recent firmware, as of today RF-Bridge-EFM8BB1-20190220.hex
• Once on the page of this firmware, click on the Raw button on the top right of the file display
  
• Once the HEX file is loaded in your browser, use your browser menu to save to your hard disk

Check by opening the file you previously downloaded in a text editor if it is an HEX file or if you misdownloaded an HTML file

You are correct sir! That's frustrating - can't remember exactly which technique I used to download it. Thought it was wget. But opening the HEX file in a text editor clearly shows that it's an HTML file.

Also wonder which way I did it differently from the Portisch repo that I was actually able to get the HEX file...?

I'd add a precautionary note there if 'Edit the file in your fork of this project' (which is what shows when I hover over that edit button is the correct way.

Thank you!
