Merge #14973: doc: Improve Windows native build instructions

523785042b Modify build instructions to work with Command Prompt as well as PowerShell; other minor changes (Murray Nesbitt)

Pull request description:

  The current instructions assume usage of `PowerShell`; running in a `Command Prompt` results in a syntax error. Proposed change works with both `Command Prompt` and `PowerShell`.

  Also a few other minor formatting changes.
