README: Add note on Transient 0.7.4 requirement for gptel
* README.org (Installation): Mention explicitly that Transient 0.7.4 or higher is required. This is a frequent issue because of Emacs' reluctance to update built-in packages (#776). This instruction should apply to Elpaca/Straight too, but I don't know how to ensure that Transient is updated when using these package managers. (A PR is welcome.)
