…ilds BuildKit ships QEMU user-mode emulators in official releases, so a manual QEMU install is a fallback rather than a default prerequisite for Docker Engine standalone. Reword the Prerequisites pointer and the Install QEMU manually intro accordingly. Closes docker#22899

Fixes #22899.
The Prerequisites paragraph on
docs.docker.com/build/building/multi-platform/tells Docker Engine standalone users they "also need to install QEMU" to build multi-platform images with emulation, but official BuildKit releases already bundle QEMU user-mode emulators (upstream doc : "You do not need to set up QEMU manually in most cases").Reword the Prerequisites pointer and the Install QEMU manually intro so the manual install is presented as a fallback (for example, with a third-party BuildKit package that doesn't ship the bundled emulators) rather than a default step.
