nomulus: Install guide is outdated. | Bazel fails to build

Looks like the install guide is outdated due to folder hierarchy has changed. Install guide shows that java folder is in root of nomulus git clone folder. No longer the case. Ive tried adapting to the folder structure. I created the WORKSPACE, ref’d the folder as per the guide. I continue to fail to build. nomulus /core/src/main/ java/google/registry/

ERROR: Skipping '//core/src/main/java/google/registry/...': no targets found beneath 'core/src/main/java/google/registry'
ERROR: no targets found beneath 'core/src/main/java/google/registry'

To be fair I used git clone https://github.com/google/nomulus.git instead of git clone git@github.com:google/nomulus.git however Im not aware of a difference in the results as I dont believe the folder structure should change based on https vs ssh.

git clone section
