  • adds the db / db.query row to the span name changes table
  • documents the name template each driver uses, with examples
  • documents the new db.query.summary attribute
  • notes which db spans keep their names, and why
  • updates the ignoreSpans guidance for query spans

Split out because all seven instrumentation PRs branch off develop, so
per-PR edits to this one section would conflict. Merge last.

Refs #23523

Extends the existing "Span name changes" section with the `db`/`db.query` row,
the per-driver name template each instrumentation uses, and the new
`db.query.summary` attribute.

Kept out of the seven instrumentation PRs because each of those branches from
develop, so incremental edits to this one section would conflict seven ways.
Merge this last, once the behaviour it describes has landed.
