doc: update GSG with v3.2 changes

Browse Source 
* install all Debian packages from /tmp (not ~/acrn-work)
* remove use of USB stick to copy files between dev and target (use scp)
* fix kernel version numbers (5.15.44 to 5.15.77)
* update parameters for debian_build.sh
* remove display of GRUB menu (ACRN now takes over target and
  automatically boots into hypervisor then Service VM

@ -53,11 +53,6 @@ Before you begin, make sure your machines have the following prerequisites:
- USB keyboard and mouse
- Monitor
- Ethernet cable and Internet access
- A second USB disk with minimum 16GB capacity. Format your USB disk with a
file system that supports files greater than 4GB: extFAT or NTFS, but not
FAT32. We'll use this USB disk to copy files between the development
computer and target system. Instead of a USB drive, you can copy files
between systems over the network using the ``scp`` command.
- Local storage device (NVMe or SATA drive, for example). We recommend having
40GB or more of free space.
