The `ShellSession` markup seems to be relatively uncommon, only supported on GitHub. A more common markup -- also understood by GitHub, but supported much more widely, e.g. in Hugo's very own default Markdown processor -- is the `console` one. So let's use that instead.

As early as 5d721a7 (readme is markdown, 2012-03-08), the `README` was written in Markdown, but its Unix shell command snippets were not marked up as such (most likely because way back when, syntax highlighting in `<pre>` blocks had not yet been dreamt up). However, we are approaching the end of the first quarter of the 21st century and it is time to go with the times. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <[email protected]>

Context
I've been meaning to add this for a while, as it's a common question from new contributors. And today, I found myself wanting the steps explained in the README, as I needed to run the tests, hadn't run them in a while, and had forgotten how to do that.
