Merge pull request #5872 from sowwos/docs/windows-offline-clarify

This adds two actionable Windows notes to docs/Platforms/Propietary/Windows/Offline.md:  - Explain that WRITABLE_PATH and ATTACHMENTS_STORE_PATH must be set before start to avoid the attachments error   (“The 'path' argument must be of type string. Received undefined” from models/attachments.js). - Show how to expose the dev server on LAN on Windows (BIND_IP=0.0.0.0 + ROOT_URL=http://<LAN-IP>:4000).  Tested on Windows 11 with Meteor dev server. Follow-up to #5871 (closed as wrong file).

#### Windows notes (tested on Windows 11)
- **Attachments error fix**: if you get
`TypeError: The "path" argument must be of type string. Received undefined`
from `models/attachments.js`, create folders and set writable paths **before** start:
- Create: `C:\wekan-data` and `C:\wekan-data\attachments`
- PowerShell:
```
$env:WRITABLE_PATH="C:\wekan-data"
$env:ATTACHMENTS_STORE_PATH="C:\wekan-data\attachments"
```
- CMD:
```
set WRITABLE_PATH=C:\wekan-data
set ATTACHMENTS_STORE_PATH=C:\wekan-data\attachments
```
- **LAN access in dev on Windows**:
- PowerShell:
```
$env:BIND_IP="0.0.0.0"
$env:ROOT_URL="http://<YOUR-LAN-IP>:4000"
meteor run --port 4000
```
- CMD:
```
set BIND_IP=0.0.0.0
set ROOT_URL=http://<YOUR-LAN-IP>:4000
meteor run --port 4000
```
