Don't use '--toolset' in documentation

Description
The --toolset option tends to confuse folks -- they try to add "--" in front of other things, like "variant". Since "--toolset=" and "toolset=" are equivalent, the best solution is to use "toolset=" in getting started, and leave "--toolset" in code for backward compatibility.

As of today, getting started does not have "--toolset" string anywhere.
