readme: update instructions for dkms after kernel upgrade 

I've changed it to a link to the t2linux wiki's dkms page, which tells people

I've also reworded the warning about 5.8-9 kernels causing issues, so
that it no longer warns against 5.10

The step to install it from scratch would be: If you upgrade from 5.7.19 to a newer kernel version (5.10+), you will need updated versions of these kernel modules. Instructions for installing updated ones are [here](https://wiki.t2linux.org/guides/dkms/).
```bash
sudo apt install dkms
sudo apt install linux-headers-<mbp-kernel-release>-mbp linux-image-<mbp-kernel-release>-mbp
sudo git clone --branch mbp15 https://github.com/roadrunner2/macbook12-spi-driver.git /usr/src/apple-ibridge-0.1
