Update doc/gitian-building.md for new gitian
The patch to make it possible to configure the LXC IPs has been merged upstream. This means that it is no longer needed to patch gitian. Remove that workaround.

-We need to change the guest IP range for the gitian builder because otherwise it will

-this, so we need to patch the IPs using `sed`. This is not nice but it will
