Update supported distros list

I've just tested Rocky Linux v9 and it seems to work.

I suppose the Docker situation
(https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy/issues/300)
on RHEL v8 has improved, so it probably works too.

I see no reason AlmaLinux and other RHEL derivatives wouldn't work,
but I have neither tested them, nor have confirmation from others about
it.

It's mostly a matter of us being able to install:
- Docker, via https://github.com/geerlingguy/ansible-role-docker which
  seems to support various distros
- a few other packages (systemd-timesyncd, etc).

The list of supported distros has been reordered alphabetically.

I've heard reports of SUSE Linux working well too, so it may also be added
if confirmed again.

To install Matrix services using this Ansible playbook, you need:
- (Recommended) An **x86** server ([What kind of server specs do I need?](faq.md#what-kind-of-server-specs-do-i-need)) running one of these operating systems:
- **CentOS** (7 only for now; [8 is not yet supported](https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy/issues/300))
- **Debian** (10/Buster or newer)
- **Ubuntu** (18.04 or newer, although [20.04 may be problematic](ansible.md#supported-ansible-versions))
- (Recommended) An **x86** server ([What kind of server specs do I need?](faq.md#what-kind-of-server-specs-do-i-need)) running one of these operating systems that make use of [systemd](https://systemd.io/):
- **Archlinux**
- **CentOS**, **Rocky Linux**, **AlmaLinux**, or possibly other RHEL alternatives (although your mileage may vary)
- **Debian** (10/Buster or newer)
- **Ubuntu** (18.04 or newer, although [20.04 may be problematic](ansible.md#supported-ansible-versions) if you run the Ansible playbook on it)
Generally, newer is better. We only strive to support released stable versions of distributions, not betas or pre-releases. This playbook can take over your whole server or co-exist with other services that you have there.
