Jira bug here.

Added the 7zip workaround to our readme for Windows users encountering the "path too long" error message. Did not include registry workaround since that did not fix the issue either.

## Getting the project
- A release version can be downloaded from the [Releases](https://github.com/Unity-Technologies/com.unity.multiplayer.samples.coop/releases) page.
- Alternatively: click the green `Code` button and then choose to download the zip archive. Remember, that you would download the branch that you are currently viewing in Github.
- For Windows users: Using Windows' built-in extracting tool may generate a "Error 0x80010135: Path too long" error window which can invalidate the extraction process. The workaround for this issue is to extract the downloaded zip file using 7zip.
