Azure Linux 4 now publishes a .wsl distribution package alongside the
Azure VM, container, and ISO artifacts, but the README had no pointer to
it. Add a "Using Azure Linux" section covering the per-architecture
download links and the wsl commands to install, list, and enter the
distro.
The distro name in `wsl -d AzureLinux-4` matches what wsl-setup derives
at install time from /etc/os-release ("${NAME// /}-${VERSION_ID%.*}"),
which resolves to AzureLinux-4 for Azure Linux 4.0.
