d00df4e721 Docs: clarify steps to use Windows-native QEMU when building under WSL
This now descibes how to get the regular `make run` workflow to work
under Windows using native QEMU. It describes how to override the QEMU
binary path, as well as overriding the SerenityOS disk image file
location with a native Windows path.

Also fixes some minor spelling and punctuation issues.

4f71bd54a7 Documentation: Add filesystem note to WSL2 notes
WSL2 is now available in non-insider builds of Windows, starting
with version 2004.

Add a filesystem note regarding use of /mnt/c et al from WSL2 for
compiling serenity. Namely, recommend against it as the performance
across the 9p file system protocol is terrible for IO heavy jobs.

e4f7080bbd Meta: Update CLion and WSL configuration documentations
This commit updates CLionConfiguration.md and NotesOnWSL.md so that
they comply with new build system. In addition to that, the WSL doc
is updated to include instructions to run qemu (and serenity) natively
on Windows, without needing an X-window server.
