[PATCH bpf] samples/bpf: Update README.rst for manually compiling LLVM and clang

From: Tiezhu Yang
Date: Mon Jan 18 2021 - 03:54:42 EST


In the current samples/bpf/README.rst, the url of llvm and clang git
may be out of date, they are unable to access:

$ git clone http://llvm.org/git/llvm.git
Cloning into 'llvm'...
fatal: unable to access 'http://llvm.org/git/llvm.git/': Maximum (20) redirects followed
$ git clone --depth 1 http://llvm.org/git/clang.git
Cloning into 'clang'...
fatal: unable to access 'http://llvm.org/git/clang.git/': Maximum (20) redirects followed

The Clang Getting Started page [1] might have more accurate information,
I verified the procedure and it is proved to be feasible, so we should
update it to reflect the reality.
