`experimental-` prefix is no longer needed with Swift 6.0 and later versions, let's update `README.md` accordingly

There is also the message that is printed when the Swift SDK is generated (here): print(
"""
All done! Install the newly generated SDK with this command:
swift experimental-sdk install \(pathsConfiguration.artifactBundlePath)
After that, use the newly installed SDK when building with this command:
swift build --experimental-swift-sdk \(artifactID)

There was a problem hiding this comment.
I wonder if there should also be information about generating a checksum for the package. If you try installing a Swift SDK from a remote URL, swiftpm wants you to pass a checksum. For example:
$ swift sdk install https://download.swift.org/swift-6.0.3-release/static-sdk/swift-6.0.3-RELEASE/swift-6.0.3-RELEASE_static-linux-0.0.1.artifactbundle.tar.gz
Error: Bundles installed from remote URLs (`https://download.swift.org/swift-6.0.3-release/static-sdk/swift-6.0.3-RELEASE/swift-6.0.3-RELEASE_static-linux-0.0.1.artifactbundle.tar.gz`) require their checksum passed via `--checksum` option.
The distributor of the bundle must compute it with the `swift package compute-checksum` command and provide it with their Swift SDK installation instructions.
