Update fedora-minimal.md

Browse Source 
* updated for fedora-26-minimal template (no-one should safely be using -25- anymore, correct?)
* removed packages installed by default
* I've never seen the minimal template weigh less than 2GB (was 300mb from a pre-3.2 version of qubes?)
* added Qubes R4.0 specific things (I've always seen sudo installed by default for the R3.2 minimal template)

It is higly recommended to clone the original template, and make any changes in the clone instead of the original template. The following command clones the template. Replace `your-new-clone` with your desired name.
~~~
[user@dom0 ~]$ qvm-clone fedora-25-minimal your-new-clone
[user@dom0 ~]$ qvm-clone fedora-26-minimal your-new-clone

You must start the template in order to customize it.
A recommended first step is to install the `sudo` package, which is not installed by default in the minimal template:
For Qubes R4.0, sudo is not installed by default in the minimal template. To update or install packages, from a dom0 terminal window:
~~~
[user@dom0 ~]$ qvm-run -u root fedora-26-minimal xterm

If you would like to skip this step in future, please install the `sudo` package:
