The installation section could use some touchups

Thanks for the updated README, a few comments:

MO2 is built against Qt 6.5.0 currently, so the 6.5.3 is off. Might be a good idea to specify a generic version, e.g. QT_VERSION and then put a link to mob.ini for the right version (https://github.com/ModOrganizer2/mob/blob/master/mob.ini#L116).
For aqt, I don't think you need Python if you install the exe (either from releases or using a package manager, e.g., winget).

I've tried to steer clear from using package managers as the whole installation part of the readme could be revised to use package managers instead of relying on the VS installer (CMake for example), to keep things consistent I've avoided suggesting package managers

Merging this, we can always update it later if needed.
