Add note to help debug bin/setup issues. (#5651)

Browse source 
When starting the app for the first time, it's possible to run into some issues while trying to run `bin/setup`.
For example, when I started the app, I got an (unhelpful) error when running `bin/setup` and ended up figuring out the issue (needing to `yarn install`) by running the contents of the Procfile.dev file directly.

We should help point folks to this file so that they can run a command that gives them a more helpful error message, which should hopefully let them get the app up and running with any problems! :)

If you run into issues while trying to run `bin/setup` and the error message
isn't helpful, try running `bin/rails s -p 3000`. For example, you may need to
`yarn install` before starting the app.
If you're working on DEV regularly, you can use `alias start="bin/startup"` to
make this even easier. 😊
