Add simple script for running gitian-build
This shell script creates a docker image for running the gitian-build.py script, to avoid version incompatibilities. The builds may be signed automatically after manually reviewing the build hashes. Only docker.io and apt-cacher-ng are required to be installed on the host. The MacOSX SDK should also be present in this directory if Mac builds are desired. A container named "gitrun" is used to launch the builds, and all output will reside in this container as well.

* Gitian gives you the option of using any of 3 different virtualization tools: `kvm`, `docker` or `lxc`. This documentation will only show how to build with `lxc` and `docker` (documentation for `kvm` is welcome). Building with `lxc` is the default, but is more complicated, so we recommend docker your first time.
+* For a shortcut using `docker` follow the instructions in [DOCKRUN.md](DOCKRUN.md) instead
