Better document non-rust dependencies and troubleshooting

It would be helpful to mention:

  • installing pkg-config, and
  • setting OPENSSL_DIR and SQLITE3_LIB_DIR for troubleshooting header or linker errors.

I also needed to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH, but that’s probably a Nix derivation bug.

The troubleshooting doc was a bit hard to find, maybe it could be linked from the readme.

I agree; let's document all of this.
