Doc: clarify wording about tool requirements in sourcerepo.sgml.
Original wording had confusingly vague antecedent for "they", so replace that with a more repetitive but clearer formulation. In passing, make the link to the installation requirements section more specific. Per gripe from Martin Mai, though this is not the fix he initially proposed. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CAN_NWRu-cWuNaiXUjV3m4H-riWURuPW=j21bSaLADs6rjjzXgQ@mail.gmail.com
