Add resources and links for Validation backlog

Mark Wood requested to merge mjwood-master-patch-83221 into master

Why is this change being made?

Assists with: #9260 (closed)

In order to provide the best experience for product managers attempting to utilize the Validation backlog section of the product development flow, we want to ensure that appropriate resources exist with links.

After some research, there are very few documented links for how to use the validation backlog, and no resources I could come up with for external sources as this is mainly a queue state meant to hold a priority ranked list, which is explained very well right here in the development flow.

I have updated the language a bit to clarify:

  1. that currently epics cannot show up on boards
  2. that a backlog is more representative of growth than of health (as some could argue that a large backlog is actually unhealthy)
