[PATCH] Updating documentation about bulding documentation in Windows.

Current documentation contains outdated instruction and scripts relative

I removed useless scripts and wrote some guide to build docs using
Windows Linux Subsystem.

Why not fix the script instead?

Using WSL is also a good idea, but then we could just say, use WSL and
follow the instructions for the particular Linux distribution. We don't
need to repeat all that again.

Hello.

It is not so easy to fix the script because it is based on old toolset
(probably on 9.6).
I'll try one more attempt.

Regardning WSL:
I think it is better to keep some instructions because there are a lot of
common errors - line ending, correct usage of linux\windows file system
mappings.
Most of Windows users are not familiar with it. I could rewrtite it as:

1. clone using WSL to Windows filesystem
2. disable autoclrf
3. edit documentation in Windows (usig Unix line-ending) and build in
WLS.

Thanks,
Michail.
