Added notes to clarify how a new contributor can try out newly made
changes in a local project by creating a new virtual env also pointing
to local Django clone from where to start a new project with
django-admin startproject.

This alleviates confusion for people who end up trying to run
django-admin startproject within the directory in which they have
cloned Django to run tests.

Added link to pip "editable install" documentation for reference.

@awtimmering Thanks for this patch 👍 I proposed some edits. IMO people that want to contribute to Django are aware how to create a Django project so we don't need a detailed explanation in this section. I also don't think that link to the pip documentation have any value because this section doesn't contain many information. Preview:
