doc: Improve windows build instructions using Linux subsystem

I did a build on a windows 10 laptop and took notes, and tried
to improve the document:

- It's the Linux subsystem for Windows, not the other way around.

- Split out dependencies: general ones, 64-bit, 32-bit. Remove the
  reference to `build-unix.md`, easy enough to be self-contained.

- Place 64-bit instructions first. 99% will want these.

- Installation instructions: recommend using `/` for prefix, same as we
  do on gitian builds. This will allow copying the files to a usable
  (from Windows) place using just `make DESTDIR=...`.

- Remove double spaces / consistent width reformatting.

+Installation
+-------------
+
+After building using the Windows subsystem it can be useful to copy the compiled
+executables to a directory on the windows drive in the same directory structure
+as they appear in the release `.zip` archive. This can be done in the following
+way. This will install to `c:\workspace\bitcoin`, for example:
+
+    make install DESTDIR=/mnt/c/workspace/bitcoin
