Lauren Barker requested to merge dex-fy25q2-nuking into main

Why is this change being made?

💡 Provide a detailed answer to the question on why this change is being proposed, in accordance with our value of Transparency.

Please add the details saying why, not just what in this section. Example: We have discussed the topic in Slack - (copy of Slack conversation). The current process is not efficient, this MR makes the description of X more clear, and helps move Y forward.

This MR adds the DEX Team Charter and does a major overhaul of the DEX handbook.

It removes the following pages:

URL Reasoning
https://handbook.gitlab.com/handbook/marketing/digital-experience/website/core-web-vitals/ Old out dated page.
https://handbook.gitlab.com/handbook/marketing/digital-experience/website/launch-darkly/ Dupliactive of our A/B testing page, which also has launch darkly informaiton
https://handbook.gitlab.com/handbook/marketing/digital-experience/website/merge-requests/ This is common sense, and there is documentation through out GitLab on how to author and review merge request. We will be adding a DEX engineering sub section with accurate information.
https://handbook.gitlab.com/handbook/marketing/digital-experience/conversion/ Group page is not needed - revising group structure for FY25Q2
https://handbook.gitlab.com/handbook/marketing/digital-experience/smartling/ Smartling was never implemented
https://handbook.gitlab.com/handbook/marketing/digital-experience/writing-description-templates/ This information will be updated in next MR that adds DEX Engineering information
