After installing docfx 2.45 on Ubuntu disco with mono 6.0.0.327, trying to run docfx fails with:

System.TypeLoadException: Could not load type of field 'Microsoft.DocAsCode.SubCommands.CommandController:<_allCommands>k__BackingField' (0) due to: Could not load file or assembly 'System.Runtime, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' or one of its dependencies. assembly:System.Runtime, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a type:<unknown type> member:(null) signature:<none>
  at Microsoft.DocAsCode.Program.ExecSubCommand (System.String[] args) [0x0003e] in <e0347d080161439aa168ce29a28dd6c7>:0

After installing mono-devel, the error goes away. It's probably worth documenting this.

See #718 (comment) where this was also described.

@perlun
docfx_getting_started: Mention mono-devel
b3caa55 
The primary aim here is to ensure that `mono-devel` is mentioned, since it's not enough in this case to just have the runtime package installed.

Closes dotnet#5082.
