Adds a "Scheduling snapshots at scale" section to the AI database-versioning guide, documenting the per-account 5,000-scheduled-snapshots-per-hour limit and how high-volume/agent-platform builders should distribute the schedule hour to stay under it.

Eng PR: https://github.com/databricks-eng/neon-cloud/pull/9065 ([cplane/public_api] feat: Hard limit snapshot schedules per account per hour) is currently OPEN / not merged. The limit value (5,000, a live-config default), the error string, and whether it ships at all can still change in review. Hold this docs PR as a draft until #9065 merges, then reconcile the number/error text against the merged code before marking ready.

Tracking: DOC-25882.

Rework the 'Scheduling snapshots at scale' section into concise prose:
drop the admonition callout and the verbatim (still-TBD) error string,
inline the hash/cycle/random strategies, and keep the per-account 5,000
snapshots-per-hour default limit and hour-distribution guidance.

Tracking: DOC-25882.

Apply the approved final wording for the 'Scheduling snapshots at scale'
section: recommend distributing snapshot creation across several hours,
state the per-account 5,000 snapshots-per-hour default limit, and keep the
hour-distribution strategies (hash/cycle/random).

Tracking: DOC-25882.

Co-authored-by: Isaac
Present the hour-distribution strategies (hash/cycle/random) as three
bold lead-in bullets instead of an inline list. No wording change to the
first two paragraphs.

Tracking: DOC-25882.

Per Neon eng reviewer feedback, remove the private per-account/per-hour
numeric limit and any mechanism/consequence framing. Keep it a bare
good-practice recommendation: distribute scheduled snapshot creation
across hours (midnight shown only as concentration to avoid), with the
hash/cycle/random strategies.

Tracking: DOC-25882.

Co-authored-by: Isaac
Break the first paragraph of 'Scheduling snapshots at scale' into two
sentences; move the midnight illustration into its own 'For example'
sentence. No other content changes.
