Summary
Documents the new Stack Alerts and Observability Alerts feature privileges (9.5 and Serverless), which let users read alerts and perform per-alert actions (snooze, unsnooze, acknowledge) without the broader rule-management privilege. Also adds dedicated Required permissions sections to the rules and alerts pages so readers see rule-management and alert-triage privileges side by side, with the stack/serverless differences called out inline instead of in separate notes.
Fixes #7228.
