add configdropins info to server config overview

[dmuelle]

Migrate WAS Liberty docs for configDropins info to Server config overview.

• create a new section just after "include processing"
• make the info match the styloe of the server config overview instead of "task" format.
• confirm w/ dev whether configDropins is intended for prod use or just dev/test and clarify in doc if needed.

Hi David,

I added the suggested information to the Server Configuration Overview Document.

Looks good, except the title of the section is not parallel with other titles in this topic. Looking more closely at the topic, I see there is already some info about configdropins, including the precedence in the section for the server.xml file: https://docs-draft-openlibertyio.mqj6zf7jocq.us-south.codeengine.appdomain.cloud/docs/latest/reference/config/server-configuration-overview.html#server-xml

I think we can just incorporate the info from the new section there, without needing to make a separate section,. Since the precedence and the definition are already in this section, all we really need is the information from the "Types of subdirectories within configDropins" secxtion, which I think cpuld be integrated into the server.xml section without needing it's own heading

Hi David,

I made the suggested changes to the document. I removed the section that was added and made modifications in the Server.xml section to add the suggested information.

LGTM- I do see a few small acrolinx issues. If you run acrolinx on the updated text and fix what you can, I think it's ready to go to staging.

looks good except-

Formatting on monospace code terms is messed up here:

Configurations in the configDropins/overrides directory take precedence over configurations in the server.xml file, which in turn take precedence over configurations in the configDropins/defaults directory. The configurations in 'configDropins/overrides' and 'configDropins/defaults' supersede any default settings a feature specifies.

Also-

their order of processing can be inconsistent.
