I'm researching all links to ECE current doc set while finding URLs that haven't been redirected or they are incorrectly redirected.

I have fixed all cloud-enterprise/current URLs in this repo, replacing current with 3.8 when appropriate (only twice while referring to a legacy feature), or replacing them by a proper doc in docs-content directly.

I also found some little inconsisencies and I gave some extra love to some paragraphs.

Missing redirects:

{{es}} 7.8 and later comes with Index Lifecycle Management (ILM) always enabled. Before upgrading to 7.8 or later, to avoid any unpredictable behavior it is important to configure hot-warm clusters on {{ece}} with ILM rather than index curation. Check [migrate to index lifecycle management](../../../manage-data/lifecycle/index-lifecycle-management.md) for existing clusters, and [configure index management](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/cloud-enterprise/current/ece-configure-index-management.html) for new clusters.

The links were switched here, the migrate link was linking to manage ILM and the configure ILM was linking to a non redirected page, which we have fixed.
Now migrate goes to migrate and configure index management goes to manage ILM.

One of them was missing (ece), and I moved the EC one to this doc as it shouldn't be in the migrate doc.

This "migrate" doc should only have mapped pages of the ECE / EC original migrate docs, not the manage ILM docs.

You should configure all index management methods that you want your users to be able to choose from when they create their deployments from your template. You can configure index curation, index lifecycle management, or both.

::::{note}
Index curation has been deprecated in favor of [index lifecycle management](/manage-data/lifecycle/index-lifecycle-management.md). For {{stack}} version 6.7 and later, any deployments using index curation will be prompted to [migrate to ILM](/manage-data/lifecycle/index-lifecycle-management/migrate-index-management.md).

The removed paragraph didn't have much sense, more over when index curation is deprecated and we should recommend against it.

I've added the note that can be felt a bit repetitive because in the beginning of the doc we already mention that index curation is deprecated (i think it's beneficial also to remind it just before describing both options).
