631459: What's new discoverability + workload availability for Azure Local deployment types (#21776) (#4502) * Proposal: add What's new in Azure Local hub and align multi-rack what's new - Add whats-new-hub.md as a single What's new landing page linking to hyperconverged, multi-rack, VM migration, and disconnected operations release notes. - Wire TOC What's new node to the hub and nest the four what's-new pages. - Remove monikers from multi-rack what's new and restructure to date-based sections (Azure Migrate style). * Fix TOC: remove href from parent What's new node, add hub as leaf child * Optimize what's new titles, descriptions, and H1 for search and AI retrievability * Fix YAML: remove colon from description values in what's new frontmatter * Replace What's new hub with TOC listing; add What's new column to deployment type guide * Merge workload availability matrix (#21748) into what's new PR; apply Manika's review comments and add reusable note include * Simplify workload availability to a workload list per Manika's feedback; drop Yes/No matrix * Link first mention of disconnected operations to its overview * Link Connected/Disconnected options in Step 1; remove duplicate disconnected links * Reword workload availability paragraph * Reword Connected mode description in Step 1 * Restore Yes/No workload availability matrix Co-authored-by: Ronmia Bess <61058899+ronmiab@users.noreply.github.com>
