[openocd:tickets] #451 Build instruction file missing

[Antonio B. <bo...@us...>]

The file INSTALL contains only generic instructions for building a project based on auto-tools. It is created by the tool automake.
The file INSTALL is part of every official OpenOCD release, but is not in the source code as it is generated before packaging each release.
So in the code under development in gerrit, the INSTALL file is not present. But in the same README file it is reported to run the script 'bootstrap' that will in turn run automake and create the file INSTALL.

I think we need to modify the README to properly report this.

Also thanks for reporting the missing tag 0.12.0 in the Milestone list.

**[tickets:#451] Build instruction file missing**

**Status:** new
**Milestone:** 0.11.0
**Created:** Tue Mar 25, 2025 12:38 PM UTC by Mats

**Owner:** nobody


1) Milestone dropdownlist when creating ticket doesn't contain 0.12.0 tag which ticket really refers to.
2) README doc points to some INSTALL file that should contain instructions on how to build binary. This file does not exist in repo which makes it difficult to build binary needed to debug segmentation fault in 0.12.0
