Backport of #66839

Audit log doc changes about:

  • the new security_config_change event type (main scope of this PR)
  • remove mentions of the 6.5 audit format changes (the JSON format)
  • mention the new archiving and rotation by size (in v8 only)
  • mention the request.id event attribute used to correlate audit events
  • mention that audit is only available on certain subscription levels
  • add an exhaustive audit event example list (because schema became too complex to explain in words 😢 given the new security_config_change events)
  • move the ignore policies are explained on a separate page (it was collocated with the logfile output since we had multiple outputs and the policies were specific the the logfile only).
