Update the software dependency link because of website shutdown.

Netcope Technologies was recently renamed to Magmio and no longer
provides packages and support for the FPGA cards and NDK platform.

However the project Liberouter@CESNET continues with the maintenance
of Network Development Kit and cooperates on the development of high
speed network FPGA cards as well.

We are planning to release large part of the NDK (firmware + software)
as open source together with introducing the new FPGA card in Q1 2022.

I updated the repo with a short README, which says that content of this
repository is being prepared for the publication, but for now there is
a latest RPM package for RHEL7 in the Releases section of the Github
repo.

+1 to the README, and good to hear that NDK will be open source, is there
any timeline for it?

Hi Ferruh,

I'm sorry for little delay, I was on vacation.

Currently I don't have a more accurate timeline for the NDK (sw+fw)
availability, but we aim to end of the Q1 2022.

The API of the libnfb should remains unchanged. For the DPDK nfb driver
it will be rather minor changes.

Martin
