Rationale for this change

As discussed in #47168, we are now requiring C++20 capable toolchains and the clang-format has been updated in our CI. This PR clarifies the required toolchain versions in the developer documentation.

What changes are included in this PR?

Added a new "Development Tool Requirements" section to the C++ development documentation (docs/source/developers/cpp/development.rst) that clearly specifies:

  • clang-format version 14.0.6 or later
  • pre-commit version 2.17.0 or later
  • Ubuntu 22.04 LTS or later

Are these changes tested?

This is documentation only.

Are there any user-facing changes?

No, this only updates developer documentation.

Closes #48850
