Unlike other languages, where we only ask users to upgrade the agent, for Go we also need to set configs on both the agent and the tracer. Both use DD_DYNAMIC_INSTRUMENTATION_ENABLED, which could be confusing.

I suggest we add a subtitle structure under Installation:

## Installation
### Data Agent configuration
### Application/Tracing Library configuration
