CCExtractor Development

Improve the how-to-install of the Continuous Integration (CI) tool (a.k.a the sample platform)

The Continuous Integration (CI) platform was developed during Google Summer of Code (GSoC) for internal use. As a result, the documentation (https://github.com/CCExtractor/sample-platform/blob/master/install/installation.md) on how to install it is either incomplete, outdated or (partially) missing. This makes it harder for new contributors that want to have a local version running to do some testing before opening a Pull Request.

Your task is to try to get the platform up and running locally, using the existing installation manual, and note down any places where you get stuck due to information missing. Then you should try to update the document based on your notes, so that another person that wants to install a local copy has fewer issues.

Debugging skills (going through logs) and willingness to do some research on errors will be important to complete this task.

We expect a Pull Request that updates the documentation linked above.
