Brendan Clement 8cc8acd30c docs: correct the cascade limit and remote stable-row-id guidance
The limits page still listed REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW ... CASCADE as
parsed but not implemented, while the refresh page says it depends on
the deployment's version. The row now says the same and links there.

The refresh page told deployment users to create a view's source with
new_table_enable_stable_row_ids. A db:// connection never sends that
option: RemoteOptions keeps only the Azure account name, and a remote
create_table sends only its mode and data. The page now says stable row
ids are set up on the deployment, which depending on its version may
give new tables them, refuse a view created through SQL over a source
without them, or convert the source when a view is created through its
REST API, and to check with its administrator.

The architecture, limits, table and database pages no longer say stable
row ids can never be enabled after creation, which that REST conversion
contradicts; they say the SDK can only give them to a table it creates.
The local heading now names the removed stable-row-id requirement
instead of promising that any table can be a source, and notes the
write-ahead-log checks that remain.
