README: Update deps even more

I think we can now call what we have in git better than the last
C++-based release, and you'll still need a C compiler to build it
because we still have some C code (libc.c).

@ -140,14 +140,12 @@ Building from git master currently requires:
- Rust (version 1.70 or later)
- CMake (version 3.19 or later)
- a C compiler (for system feature detection)
- PCRE2 (headers and libraries) - optional, this will be downloaded if missing
- gettext (headers and libraries) - optional, for translation support
- an Internet connection, as other dependencies will be downloaded automatically
- For tests: a C++11 compiler
fish is in the process of being ported to Rust, replacing all C++ code.
In general, we would currently not recommend running from git master if you just want to *use* fish.
Given the nature of the port, what is currently there is mostly a slower and buggier version of the last C++-based release.
