Update documentation for sidekiq memory killer

Nikola Milojevic requested to merge 389821-update-docs-for-sidekiq-memory-killer into master

What does this MR do and why?

We replaced our old Daemon Sidekiq Memory Killer with new Watchdog Memory Killer that is also used for Puma. The watchdog is backward compatible with the old Daemon Sidekiq Memory Killer and it's configuration, so the self-managed customers will see no difference.

This MR updates documentation for configuring Sidekiq Memory killer. We think that Watchdog/Memory Killer is just internal implementation detail, and this MR focuses in updating documentation how to configure/tweak and monitor this in order to reduce memory use.

Screenshots or screen recordings

Screenshots are required for UI changes, and strongly recommended for all other merge requests.

How to set up and validate locally

Numbered steps to set up and validate the change are strongly suggested.

MR acceptance checklist

This checklist encourages us to confirm any changes have been analyzed to reduce risks in quality, performance, reliability, security, and maintainability.
