Hi

When trying to install chrony from source, I found out that the README
refered to INSTALL which does not exist. Also asciidoctor is needed
during install. here is a patch to fix the docs.

Not at all sure where you are getting your source for chrony. Version 1.31.2 certainly has an INSTALL file. And I have no idea what
"asciidoctor" is and I certainly do not need it.

Which version of chrony are you refering to? And is this the source from some
distribution?
