Description of the change

General updates to the external libraries appendix and the primer.

The external libraries appendix is updated to the latest software versions used for Fluidity, and install methods for external libraries on Red Hat, Fedora, and OpenSuSE are added.

Primers are made specific to Ubuntu, Red Hat (and derivatives), Fedora, and OpenSuSE.

Feedback welcomed on these changes - to some extent this has been discussed in dev meetings and the proposed merge here is following decisions made there, but more specific formatting and description comments would be appreciated if anyone has suggestions for improvement.
