What does this PR do? What is the motivation?
Rewrites the Host Map widget documentation for the v2 infrastructure request type. The widget has been fully refreshed and now supports hosts, containers, pods, and clusters via a new backend powered by the infrastructure query API.
Changes:
content/en/dashboards/widgets/hostmap.md: Replaces the legacy 7-step metric-based configuration guide with v2 field descriptions covering node type, filter, group by, fill by, size by, style, conditional formats, and the hierarchical child layer.The v2 infra mode replaces the legacy widget. Existing widgets can be migrated in the Datadog UI.
