DOC: Creating development environment - BT for Visual Studio version

[jtimko16]

Pandas version checks

• I have checked that the issue still exists on the latest versions of the docs on main here

Location of the documentation

https://pandas.pydata.org/docs/dev/development/contributing_environment.html#option-1-creating-an-environment-without-docker

Documentation problem

Installation guide points to installation of Visual Studio 2019:

'You will need Build Tools for Visual Studio 2019.'

However on the linked website there already version 2022. While version 2019 could be find in 'Older downloads'. Therefore it is confusing for new users which version should be used.

Suggested fix for documentation

Test whether setting environment using Build Tools for Visual Studio 2022 works well:

a) If yes, update it in documentation and provide correct link

b) In not, provide alternative link to 2019 version, and give warning that it is necessary to use specifically this version.
