Added auto install bash script (ubuntu/debian) (#155)

Browse Source 
I wrote this bash script to automate the process of compiling and install this driver on Ubuntu Xenial, but the script is usable as is (or with minor tweaks) on pretty much any Debian based distro. I thought it might be a useful tool, especially for novice linux users, either as a no-brain install method, or as a guide to demonstrate the steps for installing the driver. I added some comments to explain what each group of commands does.

I realize this might be just be clutter for the project, but I thought I would push it and let you decide if it would be useful or not. Thanks for all the hard work on this driver, it is much appreciated!

##
## Automated setup for Netgear A6100 AC600 usb wifi adapter drivers
## Designed for Ubuntu Xenial 16.04 LTS (and Debian distros generally)
##
## This is a simple bash script to automate the installation of the latest rtl8812AU linux drivers for
## the NETGEAR A6100 AC600 usb wifi dongle from https://github.com/abperiasamy/rtl8812AU_8821AU_linux .
## This script was created specifically for Ubuntu Xenial 16.04 LTS, but should work as is, or with
## minor modifications, on any Debian based linux distribution.
##
## This script:
## (1) installs git to pull the repository and gcc (and associated build tools)
## (2) compiles the driver binary and installs it to the system
## (3) creates a udev rule to rename the interface to "wlan0" (optional)
## (4) loads the driver and adds a modprobe rule to do this at boot
##
## Install Dependencies
apt update
apt install -y git build-essential make autoconf libtool gcc gettext
## Clone latest github repository
cd /var/lib/git
git clone https://github.com/abperiasamy/rtl8812AU_8821AU_linux.git
## Compile and install driver binary
cd rtl8812AU_8821AU_linux
make
make install
## Make udev rule (you can omit this line to have the system automatically name the device, or change NAME="wlan0" to a diffrent device name)
echo 'SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="rtl8812au", ATTR{type}=="1", NAME="wlan0"' >> /lib/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-network.rules
## Load driver module
modprobe 8812au
## Add module at boot (file may be /etc/modules on other distribution)
echo -e '# Netgear A600 usb wifi dongle\n8812au' > /etc/modules-load.d/8812au.conf
