What does this PR do? What is the motivation?

Fixes DOCS-15417

The historical Agent config_template.yaml was removed and has been replaced by a set of example YAML configs. @brett0000FF removed the docs build dependency on the old file (#39006), and removed references to the old file in various docs pages (#39062) to prevent 404s.

This PR:

  • Adds back removed links, repointing them to the correct new example files (in some cases, changing the wording around the links) -- ecc89c7 and b0ad294
  • Replaces links that were pinned to specific commits and/or line numbers in the old file -- 612605e

One note: I didn't replace the link removed from the Agent 6 doc because that version EOL and the page is hidden anyway.

AI assistance

I walked through each file myself, using Claude Code to do a lot of the replacing. Also had it check through Brett's PRs and linked tickets to make sure I didn't miss any files.

I chose to add a column to the table here so we can link to each OS's file, rather than adding back the single line that was removed: https://github.com/DataDog/documentation/pull/39062/changes#diff-f5905e3ea70b6212accb2b082527190750c0fd8bc3ae5eb309ba82f9b60fc805L26
