README.md: Add possibly not working systems
These systems have a report that the unlock utility does not work.
Until there are multiple reports of failed unlocks and a technical
determination of why it doesn't work, they will not be listed as
explicitly unsupported.

README.md: Add instructions for relaxing memory permissions
As this utility requires access to /dev/mem, the default protections of
Linux and OpenBSD must be relaxed to allow this. Make a note of this in
the instructions.

README.md: Add references to Open Security Training
The old Open Security Training site had a course called Advanced x86:
BIOS and SMM Internals, which had a set of slides outlining the method
to supress SMIs by changing the GBL_SMI_EN bit. Add a reference to it as
this is where I originally learned of this method.

util/e6400-flash-unlock: Rename to dell-flash-unlock
This more accurately describes the scope of the utility.
