Add 28 new service articles

This PR adds 28 new documentation articles for LocalStack for Azure services. Each article covers a distinct Azure resource type and follows the standard article structure. All az CLI command blocks include a real output block captured from a running LocalStack emulator, with ... used to indicate properties omitted for brevity.

Article structure

Every article contains the following sections:

  • Introduction — What the service is, what it is used for, and a link to the official Microsoft documentation
  • Getting started — Step-by-step az CLI commands (including azlocal start-interception / azlocal stop-interception preamble) with one real output block per command
  • Features — A bullet list of the operations and capabilities emulated by LocalStack for Azure
  • Limitations — What is not emulated (e.g. network packet routing, live telemetry ingestion, Docker requirement for function execution)
  • Samples — Links to working code samples in the LocalStack samples repository
  • API Coverage — Embedded <AzureFeatureCoverage> component showing the full ARM operation coverage table

Output block conventions

  • Every az command is followed by exactly one ```bash title="Output" block
  • Output was captured live from a running LocalStack for Azure emulator
  • When a response was shortened for readability, ... appears on its own line before the closing } to signal omitted properties
