[GNC] Build scripts for ubuntu added to the wiki

[David H]

Thanks for your scripts David,

I thought I'd give building on Ubuntu a shot using your scripts from a
couple of days ago as I usually just use the Flatpak version on linux and
have never built anything on linux :-)  I just entered each command one
after another in a terminal window so I could see what was happening which
seemed to work ok but looking at the build dir it built gnucash ok but
never installed it.  I noticed the "sudo make install" in your published
versions on the wiki this morning and went back into the build dir and ran
the "sudo make install" and it installed ok in /opt/gnucash.  I'm assuming
from this I need to add the "sudo make install" to the script for it to
build and install in future?

Cheers David H.
