Remove an Outdated Description in INSTALL.md (#2391)
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Summary:
According to [`CMakeLists.txt`](https://github.com/facebookresearch/faiss/blob/442d9f4a2d43e2ada6423e8e4e3414131dea849d/CMakeLists.txt#L20), current `faiss` doesn't recognize `sse4` as `FAISS_OPT_LEVEL` .
I've read `CMakeLists.txt`s and confirmed that (current `faiss` treats `sse4` as same as `generic`), so this PR removes the description of this outdated option from `INSTALL.md` .

This PR contains only document update, so this doesn't affect the software behavior.
