This PR adds two new troubleshooting pages under the EDOT documentation:
"Missing or incomplete traces due to SDK sampling": Helps users identify and resolve trace loss caused by head sampling settings in Elastic's OpenTelemetry SDKs.
"Missing or incomplete traces due to Collector sampling": Focuses on tail sampling configuration issues in the EDOT Collector.
Both pages are linked to each other.
