doc: Fix doc builds on Windows MINGW32, add some doc build documentation

Using "find" doesn't work properly in MINGW32 Python, even if a MINGW32 find.exe
is on the PATH...

+# Building Documentation
+
+* Install `make` and `doxygen` for your platform (`make` may already be installed as an ESP-IDF prerequisite).
+* Change to either the docs/en or docs/zh_CN subdirectory and run `make html`
+* `make` will probably prompt you to run a python pip install step to get some other Python-related prerequisites. Run the command as shown, then re-run `make html` to build the docs.
+
+## For MSYS2 MINGW32 on Windows
+
+If using Windows and the MSYS2 MINGW32 terminal, run this command before running "make html" the first time:
+
+```
+pacman -S doxygen mingw-w64-i686-python2-pillow
+```
+
+Note: Currently it is not possible to build docs on Windows without using a Unix-on-Windows layer such as MSYS2 MINGW32.
