Docs: Run Grafana Mimir in production using the Helm chart

[dimitarvdimitrov]

What this PR does

Adds a guide that's meant to help users move from a small dev Mimir installation to a "production-ready" setup. A lot of the guide is pointing to other articles.

The PR also changes a handful of other articles and the chart README to fix outdated information or add more details.

This PR contains a link to the HA deduplication with consul article and to the zone awareness migration guide, which are still unpublished. So the CI here should fail at least because of that.

Which issue(s) this PR fixes or relates to

Fixes #2181

we just worked through the editing process of the article with @osg-grafana, I think it's turning into a great resource for our opensource users

The CHANGELOG has just been cut to prepare for the next Mimir release. Please rebase main and eventually move the CHANGELOG entry added / updated in this PR to the top of the CHANGELOG document. Thanks!

Please change running- to run- so that you are using imperatives for tasks.

Please change running- to run- so that you are using imperatives for tasks.

And configuring-with-helm.md to configure-with-helm.md.

[dimitarvdimitrov]

And configuring-with-helm.md to configure-with-helm.md.

There is no configuring-with-helm.md. Did you mean configuration-with-helm.md?

@osg-grafana I opened a new PR with the unrelated changes #3178

[krajorama]

Good stuff! There's a part in the README.md that talks about storage, should probably refer to the new documentation.

[dimitarvdimitrov]

thanks for the review, can you take another look when you have time?

[krajorama]

I think we should merge it and we should do a global review of all the helm docs together once we merged this, multizone, security, sizing plan update and more before 4.0.

[krajorama]

With the comment to revert renaming the title of the document, it's too long.

The backport to release-2.4 failed:

The process '/usr/bin/git' failed with exit code 1

To backport manually, run these commands in your terminal:

# Fetch latest updates from GitHub
git fetch
# Create a new branch
git switch --create backport-3072-to-release-2.4 origin/release-2.4
# Cherry-pick the merged commit of this pull request and resolve the conflicts
git cherry-pick -x 7b55b0d60bfcccdcc8c3f777891c9902e141327f
# Push it to GitHub
git push --set-upstream origin backport-3072-to-release-2.4
git switch main
# Remove the local backport branch
git branch -D backport-3072-to-release-2.4

Then, create a pull request where the base branch is release-2.4 and the compare/head branch is backport-3072-to-release-2.4.
