Correct wx/msw/setup.h instructions in the documentation

Browse source 
This file doesn't need to be created initially, as it will be done
automatically during the build, but it does need to be updated whenever
setup0.h changes, so explain this in both the README-GIT.md file and the
main build instructions.

Closes #18699.

@ -5,13 +5,14 @@ Please use `--recurse-submodules` option with the initial `git clone`. If you
had already cloned the repository without this option, please run `git
submodule update --init` to also get all 3rd party libraries code.
Before building from Git sources under Windows, you need to copy the
file `include/wx/msw/setup0.h` to `include/wx/msw/setup.h`. This is
necessary in order to allow having local modifications to the latter
file without showing it as modified, as it is not under version
control.
If you get errors about "wxUSE_XXX must be defined" when building, it
probably means that you need to copy the new options added to the file
`include/wx/msw/setup0.h` to `include/wx/msw/setup.h`. If you had never
modified the latter, it's safe to just delete it, as it will be created
by copying `setup0.h` during the next build.
After doing this, please proceed with the build as with any official
release, i.e. follow the instructions in the port-specific files, e.g.
Otherwise, building from Git checkout is not different from building
from the sources include into the releases, so please follow the usual
instructions in the port-specific files, such as
[wxMSW](docs/msw/install.md), [wxGTK](docs/gtk/install.md),
[wxOSX](docs/osx/install.md) and so on.
