Step 3 failing on WSL with error "gpg: keyserver receive failed: No dirmngr"

It would be great if you just add this link: microsoft/WSL#3286 (comment) or copy comment text to https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cli/azure/install-azure-cli-apt?view=azure-cli-latest#cli-fails-to-install-or-run-on-windows-subsystem-for-linux
Because it solves issue and there is no reason to force people search it.

@akkensheen - As the linked issue states, this was "Fixed in 1809". The correct solution here is to update to a more recent version of Windows (and WSL), as described in the troubleshooting section.
