Take a look at https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell#downloading-the-source-code

You probably didn't use --recursive when cloning, so you don't have the submodules (googletest is one of them). Try to update the submodules with

git submodule update --init

I can second that. I had issues building libpsl-native until I did a recursive clone. Looking over the documentation, it's all there really, but it's still a simple mistake to miss.

I suggest closing this issue.

Closing as it sounds like the question has been addressed - reopen if the solution doesn't help.
