Summary of Changes

Hello @djshow832, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request significantly expands the TiDB Cloud documentation by introducing dedicated content for TiProxy. The changes aim to provide users with a clear understanding of TiProxy's functionality, how to manage it within their clusters, and how to monitor its performance and associated costs. This ensures that users can effectively leverage TiProxy for improved connection management and load balancing in their TiDB Cloud deployments.

Highlights

  • New TiProxy Documentation: Added two new comprehensive documentation pages: tiproxy-overview.md providing an introduction to TiProxy, its use cases, limitations, and billing, and tiproxy-management.md detailing how to enable, disable, view, and modify TiProxy instances within TiDB Cloud.
  • Table of Contents Integration: Updated the TOC-tidb-cloud.md file to include the newly added TiProxy documentation under a new 'Manage Connections by TiProxy' section, making it easily discoverable within the TiDB Cloud documentation.
  • Monitoring and Dashboard Updates: Enhanced existing monitoring documentation (built-in-monitoring.md) by adding specific TiProxy metrics (CPU Usage, Connections, Throughput, Session Migration Reasons) and updated the TiDB Cloud Clinic dashboards (tidb-cloud-clinic.md) to include a 'TiProxy-Summary' dashboard.
