This improves the 'build_chroot' script in two ways:
- It is now possible to configure the group of non-root
users that can use the chroot.
- Some documentaiton about the configuration of various
fstab files is added.

+#Requirements for this script to work:
+#* Make sure that the user who uses the chroot is in group 'src', or change
+# the ${GROUP} variable to a group that contains the user.
+#* Add any path of the host system that you want to access inside the chroot
+# to the /etc/schroot/default/fstab file. This is important in particular if
+# your homedir is not in /home.
+#* Add this to your /etc/fstab:
