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.

@xedin Can you afford to poll the team for how many people and how often they intentionally omit these --skip* flags in their line of work? Maybe we should invert the default behavior.

I like @AnthonyLatsis's idea of inverting the default for these flags. That's how it already works if you invoke CMake directly which I normally do: unless you specified more SDKs in -D SWIFT_SDKS=..., only the host SDK is used.

I think that should probably happen in a separate patch, if anyone's happy to work on that.
