[PATCH-SERIES manager/docs 00/18] crs docs updates + load balancer ui and docs followup

A followup to the static/dynamic load balancer series [0], which
includes the documentation and smaller UI improvements for configuring
the load balancer.

These patches also clean up the already existing CRS section and updates
it according to the other recent changes, such as:

- s/HA service/HA resource/ to avoid mixed usage of both terms in the
same section
- basic/static-load scheduler mode include non-HA resources as well now
- the dynamic load scheduler is added now
- the dynamic load scheduler mode shares the behavior on
rebalance-on-start now, moving this to its own section
- there's a section for the load balancer with some motivational text as
well as some details about the configuration options
- update the crs datacenter gui screenshot accordingly

The UI patches fix some oversights that came up while writing the
documentation:

- add missing 'edit' subject in new crs modal
- s/HA service/HA resource/ to avoid mixed usage of both terms
- s/HA Scheduling/Scheduler Mode/ as it's referred so in the docs
- constrain users to only enable and set load balancer options if either
'static' or 'dynamic' scheduler mode is set

I've marked the load balancer feature as technology preview now, to
hopefully get enough user feedback (and the according improvements) in
for a stable release for Proxmox VE 9.2. I'll leave this bit at the
discretion of the applying maintainer.

I'd be happy to have some feedback on the changes!
