Pull request overview
This PR updates the Windows setup instructions in the developer guide to reduce build failures by clarifying Visual Studio requirements. It aligns the guidance with the need for appropriate C++ tooling and SDKs on Windows.

- Add a link to Native AOT prerequisites to guide users on setup.
