[Freeswitch-docs] Installation from source instructions

[Sergey Safarov]

How to build RPM packages for dependences libs is described on page
https://freeswitch.org/confluence/display/FREESWITCH/Creating+RPM+repositary

If this page is accepted as generic way instruction for RPM based distros i
will add instruction for compiling RPM of FreeSwitch.
