Command line instruction to download iso from iOS

Hello,

To me, downloading the installer to create the usb was very confusing. For some reason, the installer wouldn't show up on the appstore or on any other Apple web site.

The technique described here https://osxdaily.com/2020/04/13/how-download-full-macos-installer-terminal/ using softwareupdate is super straight forward. I believe these commands could be mentionned somewhere in the guide :

softwareupdate --list-full-installers
softwareupdate --fetch-full-installer --full-installer-version x.x.x

@Unitiser that's a great tip - can you send a PR to include it?
