Updated section on sudo usage. Added how to unmount. Added brew command.

You only need to access the drive as root if you mount it outside your home directory. You can cd ~, mkdir mnt, ext4fuse /dev/diskXsY mnt, ls -la mnt without sudo/root.

Updates relating to new ext4 features which mean another package - ext4fuse - may be needed.
