Initially created this PR for the new point visibility and table density options added in 9.1, but I noticed that appearance options aren't even listed in the Lens docs. There's more to do to properly document how to build each type of charts, but at least this PR adds mentions for all appearance options I found. (All those behind the :brush: icon)
@markov00 I did some minimal testing to come up with some of these descriptions. Feel free to check/have them checked and edited by the team. Would love your input to make sure that's accurate enough even though this is quite minimal. Similarly, I added screenshots to help explain the various "missing values" options, but feel free to suggest better examples to showcase the differences between each option.

Note: I'll make a separate PR for 8.19 once we're happy with the content here.
