manuals: add minimum RAM requirements

Browse Source 
Measured by generating a "core-image-sato" image for a "qemux86-64"
machine from an Ubuntu 22.04 VM with 4 cores.

Less memory was not enough and caused Out of Memory failures.

Minimum System RAM
==================
You will manage to build an image such as ``core-image-sato`` for the
``qemux86-64`` machine with as little as &MIN_RAM; Gbytes of RAM on an old
system with 4 CPU cores, but your builds will be much faster on a system with
as much RAM and as many CPU cores as possible.
