The build.sh --help command contained a dead link that referenced a non-existent file:

However, for this example, you need to already have ROOTFS_DIR set up.
Further information on this can be found here:

The link pointed to linux-instructions.md which returns a 404 error. This change updates the URL to point to the correct documentation file cross-building.md, which contains the relevant information about setting up ROOTFS_DIR for Linux cross-compilation.

Changes:

• Updated the URL in eng/build.sh line 120 from linux-instructions.md to cross-building.md

The cross-building.md file contains comprehensive documentation about cross-building, including the Linux cross-building section with detailed instructions on generating ROOTFS and setting up the ROOTFS_DIR environment variable.

Fixes #117320.
