Original PR Author

Description

Refactor the Alloy introduction topics and include a link to the introduction YouTube video.

This is a full rewrite of the Introduction section with a strong focus on providing information for people who are completely new to Alloy. It attempts to provide non-developer-based information that could help in a decision to try Alloy.

YouTube resources are here: https://github.com/grafana/Grafana-Alloy-for-Beginners

Review the changes here:

Do the locations for supported platforms and estimate resource usage make sense?
