Docs: Merge EE doc/user/admin_area to CE

What does this MR do?

Ported to EE in https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/merge_requests/11923.

This aligns the CE and EE doc/user/admin_area docs, as part of the effort to combine docs into a single codebase (&199 (closed)).

This MR:

  • Brings in geo_nodes.md, license.md, settings/account_and_limit_settings.md, settings/instance_template_repository.md, and the images associated with them.
  • Adds EE content to index.md, settings/continuous_integration.md, settings/email.md, settings/index.md
  • Adds non-EE content that was not ported to CE in settings/visibility_and_access_controls.md
  • Corrects badge in settings/external_authorization.md (it was ported to CE recently)

When both the EE Port and this MR are merged, the doc/user/admin_area docs should hopefully be aligned between CE and EE.

Then, please merge: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/merge_requests/11921, and the issue will be closed.

Review checklist

All reviewers can help ensure accuracy, clarity, completeness, and adherence to the Documentation Guidelines and Style Guide.

1. Primary Reviewer

  • Review by a code reviewer or other selected colleague to confirm accuracy, clarity, and completeness. This can be skipped for minor fixes without substantive content changes.

2. Technical Writer

  • Optional: Technical writer review. If not requested for this MR, must be scheduled post-merge. To request for this MR, assign the writer listed for the applicable DevOps stage.

3. Maintainer

  1. Review by assigned maintainer, who can always request/require the above reviews. Maintainer's review can occur before or after a technical writer review.
  2. Ensure a release milestone is set and that you merge the equivalent EE MR before the CE MR if both exist.
  3. If there has not been a technical writer review, create an issue for one using the Doc Review template.
