Resolves #532. The primary suggestion, weasel-pageant, is deprecated and doesn't seem to work with Win11. The alternative, usbipd, is extremely clunky.

Before I publish the PR I'd like to reimage one of my machines and verify this end to end.

Seems to be superfluous; `ssh-add -L` gives the public key to be copied to remote hosts.

Nice mermaid chart! Could we get a review from another Windows user confirming these updated instructions are good to go?
