Update newbs docs with some rp2040 stuff (#21186) * Update newbs_building_firmware_configurator.md * Update docs/newbs_flashing.md Co-authored-by: Ryan <fauxpark@gmail.com>

It should be noted that Configurator cannot produce firmwares for keyboards using a different controller than they were designed for, i.e. an RP2040 controller on a board designed for pro micro. You will have to use the command line [converters](https://docs.qmk.fm/#/feature_converters?id=supported-converters) for this.

Watch the [Video Tutorial](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-imgglzDMdY). Many people find that is enough information to start programming their own keyboard.
