[Docs] Update Windows build instructions for using WSL and Ubuntu 17.04 (fanquake)4f890ba
Add new step to clean $PATH var by removing /mnt specific Window's %PATH% paths that cause issues with the make system (Donal OConnor) Pull request description: This updates the Windows build documentation with the workaround required to build using Ubuntu 17.04 on WSL, and makes it's explicit that building on Ubuntu 16.04 is broken, and not recommended. This includes a commit from @donaloconnor in #11244, and is mostly the investigative work of @laanwj throughout #8732, #8653 and quite a few other issues. I tested building on 14.04, 16.04.3 and 17.04 [here](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/11244#issuecomment-327990251) and got the results we expect. --- Built master atc22a53cd63
on a Windows 10 VM (Version 1607, OS Build 14393.1593) using WSL with Ubuntu 14.04. ![windows](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/863730/30195033-867f1f24-9489-11e7-932c-e87b8764a627.png) Upgraded WSL to 16.04.3, and tried buildingc22a53cd63
