What does this PR do? What is the motivation?

These changes provide clear setup guidance for all supported languages with Live Debugger and begin the process of decoupling from the Dynamic Instrumentation documentation.

  • Update tracer version requirements:
    • In-App: Python ≥3.1.0, Java ≥1.48.0, .NET ≥3.29.0
    • Env Var: Add Node.js ≥5.39.0, Ruby ≥2.9.0, PHP ≥1.5.0; update Python to ≥2.2.0, Java to ≥1.34.0, .NET to ≥2.54.0
  • Add "Create a logs index" section with exclusion filter configuration steps (similar to DI page)
  • Add "Link your source code" section for Source Code Integration (similar to DI page)
  • Minor copy improvements for clarity
  • Reorder and remove unused references
