Open Graph metadata should be page specific #507

Description

When I pasted a link to https://aspire.dev/dashboard/enable-browser-telemetry/ on discord, I noticed that the generated preview was very generic.

Compare this to linking a github issue

I believe this is because the open graph metatags are not page specific.

<meta property="og:title" content="Aspire—Your Stack, Streamlined"/>
<meta property="og:description" content="Aspire streamlines your development workflow with code-first control, modularity, and observability for distributed applications."/>
<meta property="og:image" content="https://aspire.dev/og-image.png"/>
<meta property="og:type" content="website"/>
<meta property="og:site_name" content="Aspire"/>

title should be Enable browser telemetry whilst description should be an overview of that specific page, not some a general marketing tag line for aspire. I'm also not sure the image provides much value in previews in it's current form & size.

For reference, the opengraph data on microsoft/aspire#14940 . Github even go to an extreme and generate a unique image.
