Bug Description

The Development Environment on Ubuntu [1] uses directories in `/var` for checking out the repo, keeping logs and maintaining some state in lib. As `/var` is typically not writable by a user, it would be helpful to describe the process from the standpoint of a user logged into the machine normally.

    Assume a new developer won't create a "designate" user in the dev guide

    The getting started docs suggest checking the code out into `/var/lib`,
    but this requires a later step of adding a `designate` user to the
    sudoers list without adding a step of adding the `designate` user in the
    first place.

    This updates the docs and basic config example to simply check out the
    code into `$HOME/openstack/designate/` and removes sudoers step.
