README: update with the latest info
With distro-less fixes in OE-Core, no distro dependencies are required. Better explain toolchain requirements and setup specific versions. Signed-off-by: Denys Dmytriyenko <denys@ti.com>

17Currently meta-ti only works with the Angstrom distribution and hence 19The base BSP part of meta-ti should work with different OpenEmbedded/Yocto
18requires the meta-angstrom layer. There are known issues when using 20distributions and layer stacks, such as:
19gcc-4.6 based toolchain from OpenEmbedded-Core, thus gcc-4.5 toolchain, 21distro-less (only with OE-Core), with Yocto/Poky, with Angstrom or Arago.
20provided by meta-openembedded, is needed. It is planned to fix these
21shortcomings in the near future and allow building the base BSP part
22of meta-ti with different distributions and layer stacks, such as:
23distro-less (only with OE-Core), with Yocto/Poky, with Angstrom or
24Arago.
