I tried to build on a freshly installed Fedora 27 system and needed to
install this package.
I've added equivalent packages for other systems, although haven't
actually tested on those systems.

The current specifications for installation of Servo in Arch Linux fails to run due to requirement of fonts.
The fix is just to include the required package in the required dependencies list in README.md.
Add note to Gentoo setup to set LIBCLANG_PATH envvar
<!-- Please describe your changes on the following line: -->
Without `LIBCLANG_PATH` environment variable set the build for `gecko-media` fails as in https://github.com/servo/servo/issues/19351 for Gentoo Linux. This patch adds a note to the README to set the environment variable.

Visual Studio 2017 has to be installed at the default location or mach.bat will show an error that Visual Studio 2017 is not installed when trying to build servo
The README currently points to a 2 year old version of
python (2.7.11). While this version works for servo development,
builds also work with the current version (2.7.14), so the link can be
updated.
Added direct link to Visual Studio Community

update README
**NOTE: This PR is a fix to the README and did not update any code, so I haven't tested the changes.**
Hey @jdm, I used my time yesterday to set up Servo and get comfortable with git. I've made a minor change to the readme, just to help make the project more accessible to complete newcomers.
The line "./mach run [url]" can be confusing as there are many ways of thinking of a URL and some people don't think of including the protocol. Which is why I thought this was worth adding.
I also had trouble installing OpenSSL with the command provided. I had to disable the System Integrity protection on Mac OS and manually link the OpenSSL at reboot as brew force install didn’t work either. Can this also be noted?

The openssl-sys-extras crate used by Servo uses the outdated version
1.0 of libssl, and this exists as the libssl1.0-dev on Debian ever since
Debian upgraded to libssl 1.1.
See https://github.com/sfackler/rust-openssl/issues/522 for more context.
In addition to minor changes for Windows, this forces Windows Python to
be used for all Windows builds (instead of using Windows Python only for
pc-windows-msvc builds).
