Minor updates to README for Windows syntax for logcat instructions.

Browse source 
Modified 3 lines in README.md

Line 58 had:
`adb shell pidof -s 'com.nextcloud.client` (just one single-quote). Added a second single-quote to close the string and make it: `adb shell pidof -s 'com.nextcloud.client'`, otherwise the terminal will give you new lines waiting for the closing quote.

Line 59 & 60 use %HOMEPATH% environment var instead of %USERPROFILE%

- %HOMEPATH% will return `\Users\username`
- %USERPROFILE% will return `C:\Users\username`

Also added double-quotes around the entire path string in case username contains spaces, e.g. `C:\Users\user name`

For a PowerShell.exe terminal (what MS is starting to recommend over cmd.exe), the same lines can be used with a var reference of `$env:USERPROFILE` instead of `%USERPROFILE%`. I added in an extra hint line in the instructions to remind people of this.
