Document default 75% value for GCHeapHardLimitPercent in container environments

[Copilot]

Summary

Updated the garbage collector documentation to properly document the default 75% memory limit behavior in container environments:

• Updated the "Heap hard limit percent" section to clarify that in memory-constrained environments (containers), the container limit is considered the total physical memory, and the default value is 75%
• Updated the "Heap hard limit" section to reference the "Heap hard limit percent" section for the default value, instead of duplicating the 75% information

This centralizes the default percentage documentation in one place (GCHeapHardLimitPercent) and references it from the GCHeapHardLimit section, avoiding potential confusion about how the values interact.

Original prompt

This line

If this limit isn't configured but the process is running in a memory-constrained environment, that is, inside a container with a specified memory limit, a default value is set. That default is the greater of 20 MB or 75% of the memory limit on the container.

@copilot I believe this would read better as:
Specifies the heap hard limit as a percentage of the total physical memory. If the process is running in a memory-constrained environment, that is, inside a container with a specified memory limit, the total physical memory is the memory limit; otherwise it's what's available on the machine.

Updated the wording as suggested in commit f552eb5.

Addressed in commit d6dd0eb. Updated the GCHeapHardLimit section to reference the GCHeapHardLimitPercent section for the default value, rather than duplicating the 75% information.

Pull request overview

This PR improves the garbage collector configuration documentation by centralizing the default 75% memory limit documentation for container environments. The change moves the explicit percentage from the "Heap hard limit" section to the "Heap hard limit percent" section where it logically belongs, and creates a cross-reference to avoid duplication.

Key changes:

• Centralized the 75% default value documentation in the "Heap hard limit percent" section
• Updated the "Heap hard limit" section to reference the percentage section instead of duplicating the value
