Describe develpment helper script clone_root.sh

It would be nice that script clone_root.sh would have more friendly UI:

  1. Running ./clone_root.sh -h gives following result
+ ADDR=
+ PTH=
+ [ 1 -gt 0 ]
+ echo Usage: ./clone_root.sh [OPTION].. ADDR PATH
Usage: ./clone_root.sh [OPTION].. ADDR PATH
+ echo Clone relevant files and directories from router for testing.
Clone relevant files and directories from router for testing.
+ echo

+ echo ADDR:
ADDR:
+ echo   Address of router (or SSH identifier).
  Address of router (or SSH identifier).
+ echo PATH:
PATH:
+ echo   Directory to copy root to.
  Directory to copy root to.
+ echo Options:
Options:
+ echo   -h, --help
  -h, --help
+ echo     Print this help text
    Print this help text
+ exit 0

which seem is unexpected.

  1. It is necessary to run as root or with sudo, but it's not specified in any way (in help or README.md)
  2. It would be nice, when the result is zipped as is all other data.
