[chore] sqlserverreceiver/Add run as admin to docs (open-telemetry#27452
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
)

**Description:** 
Added a line explaining to run collector as admin, since not all perf
counters are collected unless you do.

**Testing:** No unit tests, but observed this with a simple collector
install on windows.

**Documentation:** See above.
