Build requirements

In general, for building i2pd you need several things:

• compiler with c++17 full support (for example: gcc >= 8, clang)
• boost >= 1.66
• openssl library >= 1.1.0
• zlib library (openssl already depends on it)

Optional tools:

• cmake >= 2.8 (or 3.3+ if you want to use precompiled headers on windows)
• miniupnp library (for upnp support)
