docs: Update docs to reflect newer workflow.
The workflow has recently changed such that all development is done
on the 'os-build' branch. Update the docs to show how easy it is
to make a change, commit it, generate the srpm and upload it to koji.
Also add it a build dep for making a srpm: patchutils (for filterdiff).
V2: Fix checkout command and setup master branch
V3: Use default upstream/master and git pull mechanism
