I also added `%USERPROFILE%/.mozbuild` to the exclusion list and updated the windows_build docs to reflect the changes made.

Assuming that the `MOZILLABUILD` environment variable is set, allow
invoking Mach from non-MozillaBuild terminals.
Note that MozillaBuild still needs to be installed, and the
`MOZILLABUILD` environment variable will have to be set.
For future reference: when I tried setting this up with Windows
Store's Python 3.9, I encountered issues when running binaries installed
via `pip`: it would fail with `abort: failed to load Python DLL
python3x.dll`.

* Recommend the Build Tools over the full Community IDE install
* Bump Windows 10 SDK, C++ ATL version
* Remove "Game development with C++" workload, because it doesn't seem
to be required anymore - I'm leaning on review and natural
developer-testing to confirm this assumption.

bootstrap.py may ask the restart of shell to reflect the change to login script.
Given the step 2 lets user to move to c:/mozilla-source instead of home,
the document should explicitly specify the absolute path in step 3.

Both work, but the former is preferred. Also remove MOZ_MAKE_FLAGS
in the mozconfig example for msan, because it's irrelevant.

The linked ARM wiki docs are obsolete, and will soon be unnecessary.
Additionally, the "processor" requirement is entirely redundant since we
support all processors compatible with macOS 10.12 or later.

Fedora 19 and 20 were released in 2013. If these docs haven't been
adjusted for modern Fedora, they're probably out-of-date.

When a user is at the top-level "Getting Set Up" page, they should be
shown which path to take (Windows/Mac/Linux) without redundantly showing
the platform-specific technicalities.

* Puts the docs in order, so that contributors aren't jumping to the
middle of the page to install system tools, then back to the top to
clone Firefox.
* Removes docs on MacPorts since it's being removed in bug 1688263.
* Removes step to manually install brew packages since that happens
automatically in bootstrap now.
* Simplifies mercurial installation docs
* Removes unnecessary mozconfig-tweaking instructions
* Removes almost-always-unnecessary DEFINE and troubleshooting
information.

This document was imported from MDN and contained very outdated/incorrect information, and much of the information here is duplicated from the existing `mach` documentation. For the little content that isn't already expressed in the existing documentation in a better way, merge it into `python/mach/docs`.
The unique content is mainly in the FAQ, so I added a new page for that.
