README.md: update Buildah description (#573)

The description of Buildah is a bit outdated, most importantly Buildah
does not require root privileges (anymore).  Also provide a more
detailed description copied from github.com/containers/buildah.

build tooling (it's a slightly lower-level tool that can be used to build such
builders -- such as `orca-build`).
`buildah` requires the same privileges as a Docker daemon does to run, while
`kaniko` runs without any special privileges or permissions.
`Buildah` can run as a non root user and does not require privileges. Buildah
specializes in building OCI images. Buildah's commands replicate all of the
commands that are found in a Dockerfile. Its goal is also to provide a lower
level coreutils interface to build images, allowing people to build containers
without requiring a Dockerfile. The intent with Buildah is to allow other
scripting languages to build container images, without requiring a daemon.
`FTL` and `Bazel` aim to achieve the fastest possible creation of Docker images
for a subset of images. These can be thought of as a special-case "fast path"
