Modify Update NextBuild task to support Linux / bash #36

#34

I asked how we are supposed to update NextBuild as this doesn't seem to be documented.

tasks.json has a task called "Update Nextbuild from github [affects scripts & nextlib.bas, .vscode]" but this doesn't currently work under Linux. It currently uses powershell but the Linux command to run powershell is pwsh. I tried modifying the task to use pwsh instead of powershell (after installing powershell for Linux) but that didn't fix it.

Most Linux users, even those who have installed vscode, probably won't have Linux powershell installed so we should modify this task to use bash under Linux. I had a quick go at that but I haven't got it working yet.

It doesn't appear that this task currently updates any of the vscode plugins or CSpect.
