Make it optional to provide custom ACL to build-tool
* Currently, the build-tool requires the user provide both
Arm NN and ACL repos, if providing custom repos.
* This change allows the user to provide only a custom
Arm NN repo, making a custom ACL optional in the case of
--neon-backend or --cl-backend not being chosen in BUILD_ARGS.
* Updated script help/usage and docs to reflect this.
