Building locally fails to find cpp src

[StephenHodgson]

I pulled this today to start contributing but I was having problems building locally.

./build_windows_x64.bat

From the errors it seems to be failing to find the firebase_cpp_sdk:

Example:

This same error repeats for each of the missing firebase modules

I had the same problem，is there any solution？

The Unity SDK depends on the C++ SDK. In order to build from source, you must also check out the C++ SDK source (https://github.com/firebase/firebase-cpp-sdk)

By default, the builds scripts will search for the C++ SDK source in a folder named firebase-cpp-sdk that is in the same parent folder as the firebase-unity-sdk folder. If the C++ SDK is in a different location, it must be specified with FIREBASE_CPP_SDK_DIR

Okay please update the documents to adequately describe this setup step
