Adds a HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS section to the INSTALL.ubuntu file

When I installed Koha for the first time on Ubuntu, I provisioned a VM with
what I assumed would be a generous 4GB of disk space.

This turned out to be a very bad assumption due to the 2.3GB that a full git
clone of the Koha repository requires. The symptoms of running out of disk
space were sadly not immediately apparent and caused much head scratching.

Therefore, in INSTALL.ubuntu, include an upfront note about hardware
requirements in the case of a git install, in the hopes that others will not
end up experiencing a similar fate :)
