About the method for changing default user in FAQ

The method presented in readme for changing default user was not possible for me
I was unable to locate "etc/wsl.conf" in either my PC or my Linux distro.
After a search, I found this and this as a working solution.
For example in my PC the command was like this:
ubuntu1804.exe config --default-user kamran
Please update the FAQ in the readme to this solution as it is working and standard.

If it doesn't exist, you need to create it. Here the option is mentioned in the official docs: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/wsl-config#user
It's the safer version as it will persist when moving the distro.
I added a bit more information and a link to the Microsoft Docs to the readme.
