BeOS build instructions: advise to use Quick-Start method

Browse Source 
It is now fully supported on Haiku, so let anyone interested know.
Unfortunately BeOS will still need the manual build, and it can't work
because Duktape is C99 only. I'll let mmu_man handle that, I don't need
the BeOS port myself.

Quick Start
=============
There are still pending fixes against SVN before it can be build from BeOS
or Haiku.
See the QUICK-START document, which provides a simple environment with
which you can fetch, build and install NetSurf and its dependencies.
The QUICK-START is the recommended way to build NetSurf for Haiku. BeOS needs too much manual
hacking to be built this way.

NetSurf might build on BeOS R5 but probably won't work on anything else than
BONE.
This will pull in loads of things, like all the GTK dev libraries, the PNG
