README.Linux: Note RHEL 8.5 works

Browse source 
Drop workaround for RHEL 3, because the report about 8.5 doesn't
mention it, and RHEL 3 is so ancient that there's no reason to think
the bug remains.

## Very old hints about libattr (2008)
Some versions of Linux (RHEL3 Update 2 for i386 for example) have a
/usr/lib/libacl.la libtool archive file that lists /lib/libattr.la as a
dependency. However, libattr.la does not exist in /lib/libattr.la. If
this is the case, the bootstrap will fail with
grep: /lib/libattr.la: No such file or directory
/usr/pkgsrc/bootstrap/work/wrk/pkgtools/pkg_install/work/.tools/bin/sed: can't read /lib/libattr.la: No such file or directory
libtool: link: `/lib/libattr.la' is not a valid libtool archive
The solution is to copy /usr/lib/libattr.la to /lib/libattr.la with:
cp -p /usr/lib/libattr.la /lib
