Fix #1692: Add example for profiling diff locally

+## Example profiling diff for external crates
+It can be of interest to generate a local diff for two commits of the compiler for external crates. 
+To start, in the `rustc-perf` repo, build the collector, which runs the Rust compiler benchmarks as follows.
+```
+cargo build --release -p collector
+```
+After this the collector can be located in `.\target\release\collector`, can be run locally with `bench_local` and expects the following arguments:
+- `<PROFILE>`: Profiler selection for how performance should be measured. For this example we will use Cachegrind.
+- `<RUSTC>`: The Rust compiler revision to benchmark, specified as a commit SHA from `rust-lang/rust`.
+Optional arguments allow running profiles and scenarios as described above. `--include` in `x perf` is instead `--exact-match`. More information regarding the mandatory and
+optional arguments can be found in the [rustc-perf-readme-profilers].
+
+Then, for the case of generating a profile diff for the crate `serve_derive-1.0.136`, for two commits `<SHA1>` and `<SHA2>` in the `rust-lang/rust` repository, run the following
+```
+./target/release/collector profile_local cachegrind +<SHA1> --rustc2 +<SHA2> --exact-match serde_derive-1.0.136 --profiles Check --scenarios IncrUnchanged
+```
