We're seeing multiple build failures with CMake 4.0: e.g. SwiftPM bootstrapping issues on macOS. `build-script` will always build a fixed version of CMake that's known to work if preinstalled one is not found. Let's reduce the chances for confusion by not recommending preinstalled CMake in `GettingStarted.md`.
This is a tool specifically designed to generate
Xcode projects for the Swift repo (as well as a
couple of adjacent repos such as LLVM and Clang).
It aims to provide a much more user-friendly experience
than the CMake Xcode generation (`build-script --xcode`).
Following along with the Getting Started guide. I noticed that the guide specifically suggests adding the `--sccache` flag if needed, but it is included in the example invocation:
> If you installed and want to use Sccache, add --sccache to the invocation.
This means that the flag is optional and should be removed from the example invocation leaving at the user discretion to use.
The Getting Started guide offers a build-script command that new contributors can use to quickly build a debug compiler on their local machine. The command already has `--skip-tvos` and `--skip-watchos` flags since most compiler contributors don't need to build for those platforms. This change adds `--skip-xros` flag to the command.

This inline Xcode version is a maintenance bother with no apparent
justification, and shall it ever fall out of sync (like right now), it can
start causing build failures for newcomers.
