Issue Details

PR PowerShell/PowerShell#10385 makes PowerShell Core to skip auto-loading PSReadLine on Windows if the NVDA screen reader is active.
This is because PSReadLine doesn't work well with the screen reader as of today. The default rendering and formatting of PowerShell Core on Windows works with NVDA properly.

This change will be ported to Windows PowerShell, so 5.1 document also needs to be updated.
