Couple of title nits, but looks great.

@atovpeko Top level comments:

  1. Let's change the main title from "Import and connect" to "Import and sync" (as "connect" is broad and could mean different things)
  2. Let's introduce the grouping under "Import and sync" as "Migrations" (similar to Hypertables inside Use TigerData). This will include three options: Live migration, Migrate with downtime, and Dual write and backfill.
  3. Move "Ingest metrics with Telegraf" into integrations. We internally don't own it or actively recommend it, so it's no different from any other integrations we offer in docs.
  4. Let's change "Connect a PG, S3" to "Sync from a PG, S3" wherever we mention "connect."
  5. Let's change the title "Import data using Console" to "Upload a file." Reasoning: When we open the instructions, we're helping with file upload from local machine and S3. The new title will be easier to understand.
    1. I suggest we merge "Import data using the terminal" with "Upload a file." The reason: we offer exactly the same functionality from a local machine. The difference is that with Console upload, we run the instructions for the user in the background, whereas with terminal, users can do it themselves. Console upload supports a maximum file size of 1 GB, but terminal users can upload files of any size.

I will review all files and detailed instructions by the end of Friday.

Just a thought, when I showed the future planning for this section to Ramon: https://billythefish.mintlify.app/integrations/integrations, his comment was that migration matches up with data management: https://billythefish.mintlify.app/manage-data/manage-data. Any chance we can ensure that this page matches the future structure?
