Subject: [PATCH] fix(curriculum) - clearer mongoose install and set up
 instructions (#49754)

* Update install and set up instructions

I've added more specific instructions around where the mongoose.connect method should be called. Without context and prior knowledge for freeCodeCamp students, there may be confusion around whether this command needs to be called from the terminal or elsewhere.

* Update install and set up instructions - formatting

Small update to formatting for clarity
