Describe the requested doc changes

I think two essential things are missing from the "Prerequisites for Compiling PowerToys" section in DevDocs:

  1. Not only enabling Windows Long Path support, but also enabling Git long paths support (i.e. git config --system core.longpaths true)
  2. Powershell Core should be installed. I noticed the Visual Studio build process called pwsh ( I think here ).
