Docs for setting up dev env with branches from other services/repos

[PVince81]

Here are my notes to add docs about setting up dev env with other branches:

The example focusses on checking out a specific PR for a change in the reva repo:

1. Use the README info to setup the basic ocis dev env: https://github.com/owncloud/ocis/blob/master/README.md
2. Clone the reva repo 'git clone https://github.com/cs3org/reva.git`
3. Install the hub command to checkout PRs from forks
4. In the "reva" repo, checkout the PR for ocdav which is tus for ocdav cs3org/reva#674, using the command: hub pr checkout 674
5. In the "ocis" checkout, edit "go.mod" and append the following line:

replace github.com/cs3org/reva => ../reva

the path "../reva" is the path to your reva checkout
(this will replace the reva library "deep replace" as used by other deps like ocis-reva)

1. then in the "ocis" checkout, run the compilation always with make clean build (don't forget the clean)
2. then run the ocis server with: bin/ocis server
3. test that you can connect with curl: curl -u einstein:relativity -X PROPFIND -k https://localhost:9200/remote.php/webdav/ | xmllint --format -

The getting started section on the docs should cover this concerns 👍 (https://owncloud.github.io/ocis/development/getting-started/)
