Windows - guidance for shell mode in the REPL (#34633)

* Windows - guidance for shell mode in the REPL

The REPL shell mode is very non intuititive for basic Windows users: the mode does nothing  (like list environment variables, list directory) such a user expects, and throws errors as well. So I clarify the behavior, and show how to access one such Windows shell that most users understand under "shell mode".

* Update index.md

As mentionned in my last comment: shell examples are now English speaking.
No other change.

+!!! note
+ For Windows users, Julia's shell mode does not expose windows shell commands.
+ Hence, this will fail:
+
+```julia-repl
+julia> ; # upon typing ;, the prompt changes (in place) to: shell>
+
+shell> dir
+ERROR: IOError: could not spawn `dir`: no such file or directory (ENOENT)
+Stacktrace!
+.......

+However, you can get access to `PowerShell` like this:
+```julia-repl
+julia> ; # upon typing ;, the prompt changes (in place) to: shell>
+
+shell> powershell

+... and to `cmd.exe` like that (see the `dir` command):

+
