    Docs: Update base system requirements for Evergreen
    
    These memory values are woefully out of date for modern Evergreen installations.
    
    Recommending also at least 2 GB of RAM for client workstation, though honestly,
    more is probably better there too.
    
    Also adding specific Linux distributions supported by this community instead of
    just Linux.
    
    And dropping specific Windows versions (especially since two out of the three
    are no longer supported by Microsoft).
