Description

Currently our Getting Started guide recommends using bgd bot. That worker isn't very well supported, and definitely not the recommended worker for use in production. This MR updates those docs to recommend using buildbox-worker with buildbox-casd instead, which is a much more sensible default setup to use and should help avoid giving the bad impression that bgd bot is the canonical worker tool.

This MR also includes a few other improvements to the Getting Started docs, notably adding links to further more advanced usage documentation.
