README: Add link to provider repos to "Developing" (#15546) 

This commit adds a link to the GitHub organization which contains the
formerly-built-in providers, and modifies the `plugin-dev` target
documentation to use a provider which is unlikely to be moved out of the
core repository.

If you wish to work on Terraform itself or any of its built-in providers, you'll first need [Go](http://www.golang.org) installed on your machine (version 1.8+ is *required*). Alternatively, you can use the Vagrantfile in the root of this repo to stand up a virtual machine with the appropriate dev tooling already set up for you.
Note that as of Terraform 0.10, most providers are no longer built in, and instead are located in their own repositories in the [terraform-providers](https://github.com/terraform-providers) organization on GitHub. Instructions for developing each provider are in the associated README file.
For local dev first make sure Go is properly installed, including setting up a [GOPATH](http://golang.org/doc/code.html#GOPATH). You will also need to add `$GOPATH/bin` to your `$PATH`.
Next, using [Git](https://git-scm.com/), clone this repository into `$GOPATH/src/github.com/hashicorp/terraform`. All the necessary dependencies are either vendored or automatically installed, so you just need to type `make`. This will compile the code and then run the tests. If this exits with exit status 0, then everything is working!

If you're working on a specific provider and only wish to rebuild that provider, you can use the `plugin-dev` target. For example, to build only the Azure provider:
If you're working on a specific provider which has not been separated into an individual repository and only wish to rebuild that provider, you can use the `plugin-dev` target. For example, to build only the Test provider:
```sh
$ make plugin-dev PLUGIN=provider-azure
$ make plugin-dev PLUGIN=provider-test
