Unified Alerting: Set `max_attempts` to 1 by default (#79095)
* Unified Alerting: Set `max_attempts` to 1 by default
The retry logic for unified alerting has been broken as far as v9.4.x, rather than fixing it in one go and causing a headache to our users with rules putting extra load on their datasources - I think a better approach is to simply set 1 as a default and then let our users change it.
I see two cons with this approach:
- Configuration for legacy to unified alerting cannot be ported over automatically, users will have to manually set `max_attempts` to 3 when migrating.
- Users expecting to get any sort of retrying (as with legacy alerting) will not have it out of the box and will have to manually edit the configuration.

Documentation: Clean up Docker installation docs (#76164)
* docs: fix minor inaccuracies
- give content on the type of data that needs persistence
- Use more precise terminology
- persistent storage != Docker volumes
- filesystem changes remains in a stopped container
and only discard when container removed
- 'directory' is more accurate than 'folder'
- fix typo: `grafana_data` should be `grafana-storage`
* docs: fix grammar and use 'directory' consistently
* docs: replace 'sqlite3' with 'SQLite version 3'

[Docs] Annotate visualizations update (#76395)
There is a sentence in the [Built-in query](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/dashboards/build-dashboards/annotate-visualizations/#built-in-query) section of the page that could use a "the" (emphasis added by me 😄) :
> When you copy a dashboard using the Save As feature it will get a new dashboard id, **so annotations created on source dashboard** will no longer be visible on the copy. You can still show them if you add a new Annotation Query and filter by tags. However, this only works if the annotations on the source dashboard had tags to filter by.
This PR adds "the" so the phrase reads "so annotations created on the source dashboard"

Signed-off-by: Jack Baldry <jack.baldry@grafana.com>
* Fix `/docs/grafana/<GRAFANA VERSION>/alerting/migrating-alerts/` redirect
The following example uses `latest` as _`GRAFANA VERSION`_ for simplicity and readability.
The desire is the following redirect:
```
src: /docs/grafana/latest/alerting/migrating-alerts/
dst: /docs/grafana/latest/alerting/set-up/migrating-alerts/
```
`dst` is the Hugo pretty URL for the current page (`docs/sources/alerting/set-up/migrating-alerts/_index.md`).
When constructing Hugo aliases we are working from the page's containing directory and not the page itself.
The path element `.` represents that directory.
For example:
```
page: /docs/grafana/latest/alerting/set-up/migrating-alerts/
alias: ./
dst: /docs/grafana/latest/alerting/set-up/
```
The path element `..` represents the parent directory of the page's containing directory.
For example:
```
page: /docs/grafana/latest/alerting/set-up/migrating-alerts/
alias: ../
dst: /docs/grafana/latest/alerting/
```
