Linux system requirements document is vague and incomplete

[SidShetye]

Issue Title

The .NET Core download page refers to this documentation page for .net core runtime prerequisites. That page says "more complex applications could have additional requirements". The use of weasel words like "could" renders that speculative documentation useless.

General

Please research, test and document the exact dependencies that support the .net core runtime. Indeed there are a lot more native dependencies than enumerated in the official documentation. Some of this research could be quick. For example, see the top of the Dockerfiles for Ubuntu.

@leecow can you help with this?

@carlossanlop @leecow With the update, the speculative language is removed but the contents are identical as before. The stated dependencies in the doc still differ from the actual .net core runtime dependencies coded into the Dockerfile by engineering, so I would argue this is worse than before because it now confidently misleads instead of speculatively misleading (accidentally).
