clarified needing to run generate_workspace from bazel source folder
Hi,
If you feel this is unnecessary please feel free to close this PR but it took me some time and @lberki's help to understand that even though I built the binary from source and I have the source cloned then I still need to run the command from the source folder so I added that note in.
Closes #1489.
