Debugging instructions may need clarification with the latest VS 2022 & Child Process Power Tool since I couldn't get it to work #106

Using the latest VS 2022 17.9.0 Preview 1 I'd been unable to debug the visualizer where previously (using some unrecorded version of VS 2019/22) I'd had no issue.

It might be useful to add this information to the main topic documentation page, item 4. I don't recall having to do this the last time I debugged my visualizer, so whether that's my memory or something has changed since then, I don't know.
