Improve the Readme.md in Platform/Ampere:
- At this point eMAG is irrelevant, and most people are likely
using Altra systems. Drop mention of it.
- Instead of mentioning the 'latest' versions of CentOS and Ubuntu
(which will by definition change over time), specify Ubuntu 22.04
and CentOS 7.
- Fix the link to the acpica download, since content has been moved from
acpica.org to intel.com.
- Assuming the build is being done on Linux, acpica shouldn't be built
with a CYGWIN definition.
- To avoid making people wait ages for acpica to build, add `-j8` as an
example of building in parallel.
