[Doc]: apparently missing git clone in "Build wheel from source" non-GPU installation documentation #12590

📚 The doc issue

I'm trying to follow the OpenVino documentation at https://docs.vllm.ai/en/latest/getting_started/installation/ai_accelerator/index.html and have noticed that there's an implicit git clone of the vllm.git repository, but it's not actually mentioned anywhere.

The text "Second, install prerequisites vLLM OpenVINO backend installation:" also seems to be missing a word; is it install prerequisites [for the] vLLM [...]"?

This seems to also be the case in other instructions, such as the x86 and ARM build wheel from source instructions here: https://docs.vllm.ai/en/latest/getting_started/installation/cpu/index.html

Suggest a potential alternative/fix

I think it's just missing the git clone line that other methods use.
