doc: update info on compiling mtd-utils

The recursive build system for mtd-utils was rewritten enough recently
such that the description regarding builing ubi-utils by typing `make'
from its subdirectory is now incorrect. Update the UBI docs to reflect
this.

Also, I copied and edited some basic info from the UBI docs to include
in the general description on compiling mtd-utils.
