Make the widescreen instructions a bit more clear

This felt like it had a higher assumption of knowledge then the rest of the guides here, like just "In Luma config," with no explaination of how to get there.
Also a couple buttons missing their <kbd>s and such

**Preparation**
### Preparation
- Make sure Luma's `boot.firm` is on the SD root for this to work
1. Download [TWPatch](https://sono.9net.org/hebrew/TWPatch/data/TWPatch.cia) ([GBATemp thread](https://gbatemp.net/threads/twpatcher-ds-i-mode-screen-filters-and-patches.542694/))
- You can also use Universal-Updater to install TWPatch
1. In Luma config, enable external FIRMs and modules
1. Install the TWPatch CIA
1. Launch TWPatch
1. (Optional!) For a less pixelated widescreen, hold Y+B, and enable `GPU scale test (health hazard!)`
### Installing
1. Download [TWPatch](https://sono.9net.org/hebrew/TWPatch/data/TWPatch.cia) and copy `TWPatch.cia` to your SD card ([GBATemp thread](https://gbatemp.net/threads/twpatcher-ds-i-mode-screen-filters-and-patches.542694/))
1. Install `TWPatch.cia` using FBI
- You can also use Universal-Updater to install TWPatch instead of the previous two steps
1. Return to the home menu and launch TWPatch
1. (Optional!) For a less pixelated widescreen, hold <kbd class="face">Y</kbd> + <kbd class="face">B</kbd> and enable `GPU scale test (health hazard!)`
- The "health hazard!" is because it gave the developer a headache due to its blurriness
1. Press <kbd class="face">X</kbd> + <kbd>START</kbd> to generate a `TwlBg.cxi` file with widescreen
- If the top screen doesn't indicate that wide patch is enabled, start from step 4 again
- If the top screen doesn't indicate that wide patch is enabled, start from step 3 again
- If widescreen still doesn't work, wait for RTCom-activated widescreen to be released
1. In the TWiLight Menu++ settings, switch the page to `Misc settings`, and set `Screen Aspect Ratio` to `16:10`
1. Restart your 3DS while holding <kbd>SELECT</kbd> to open Luma3DS's configuration
1. Enable `external FIRMs and modules`, then press <kbd>START</kbd> to save and quit
1. Open TWiLight Menu++ settings, switch to the `Misc settings` page, and set `Screen Aspect Ratio` to `16:10`
- This can be done per-game as well
You're all done! Enjoy your DS games in widescreen!
