Update windows doc to mention rust-lld linker error (#12859)

Browse source 
Release Notes:

- N/A

## Description

When using rust-lld it's possible to get a `STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION`
error at compile time. I added a bit of information about it in the
build guide for windows to recommend using a different linker when
building `zed`.

### `STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION`
This error can happen if you are using the "rust-lld.exe" linker. Consider trying a different linker.
If you are using a global config, consider moving the Zed repository to a nested directory and add a `.cargo/config.toml` with a custom linker config in the parent directory.
