Use ".NET" in preference to ".NET Core" (#14902)

* Use ".NET" in preference to ".NET Core"

We're consistently using ".NET" for recent downloads (eg see https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download) and increasingly it is clearer to use ".NET" instead of ".NET Core". Change the wording, and explain the meanings.

* Update README.md

* Apply suggestions from code review

Looking for released versions of the .NET tooling?
----------------------------------------
Download released versions of the .NET Core tools (CLI, MSBuild and the new csproj) at https://dot.net/core.
The links below are for preview versions of .NET tooling. Prefer to use released versions of the .NET tools? Go to https://dot.net/download.
Looking for .NET Framework downloads?
----------------------------------------
.NET Framework is the product from which the .NET Core project originated. .NET Core (mostly just called ".NET" here) adds many features and improvements and supports many more platforms than .NET Framework. .NET Framework remains fully supported and you can find the downloads on the [.NET website](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet-framework). For new projects, we recommend you use .NET Core.
Want to contribute or find out more about the .NET project?
----------------------------------------
This repo is for the installers. Most of the implementation is in other repos, such as the [dotnet/runtime repo](https://github.com/dotnet/runtime) or the [dotnet/aspnetcore repo](https://github.com/dotnet/aspnetcore) and [many others](https://github.com/dotnet/core/blob/main/Documentation/core-repos.md). We welcome you to join us there!
