This patch prints a friendly instructions in case Docker image version
mismatches Playwright version and there are missing browser
dependencies.
With this patch, Playwright will yield the following error:
```
root@f0774d2b2097:~# node a.mjs
node:internal/process/promises:279
triggerUncaughtException(err, true /* fromPromise */);
^
browserType.launch:
╔════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗
║ Host system is missing dependencies to run browsers. ║
║ This is most likely due to docker image version not matching Playwright version: ║
║ - Playwright: 1.22.0 ║
║ - Docker: 1.21.0 ║
║ ║
║ Either: ║
║ - (recommended) use docker image "mcr.microsoft.com/playwright:v1.22.0-focal" ║
║ - (alternative 1) run the following command inside docker to install missing dependencies: ║
║ ║
║ npx playwright install-deps ║
║ ║
║ - (alternative 2) use Aptitude inside docker: ║
║ ║
║ apt-get install libgbm1 ║

This patch:
- Adds 3 new host platform types:
* `generic-linux` and `generic-linux-arm64` for the unsupported
linux distributions
* `<unknown>` for non-supported OS versions
- Prints a warning when downloading Ubuntu browser builds on
unsupported Linux distribution
- Makes sure launch doctor prints all missing shared libraries
on unknown Linux distributions
- Also prints an `apt` command as an alternative to Playwright CLI
dependency installation.

- consolidates all distribution-specific information in a single
location
