Subject: [PATCH] Improve instructions

When running `cabal build`, I ran into this issue:

```
Warning: The package list for 'hackage.haskell.org' does not exist. Run 'cabal
update' to download it.RemoteRepo {remoteRepoName = RepoName
"hackage.haskell.org", remoteRepoURI = http://hackage.haskell.org/,

Resolving dependencies...
cabal: Could not resolve dependencies:
[__0] trying: byron-spec-chain-0.1.0.0 (user goal)
[__1] unknown package: microlens-th (dependency of byron-spec-chain)
[__1] fail (backjumping, conflict set: byron-spec-chain, microlens-th)
After searching the rest of the dependency tree exhaustively, these were the
goals I've had most trouble fulfilling: byron-spec-chain, microlens-th
```

As described, I needed to run `cabal update` first.  It could be helpful to have it in the README to help some people get started
