feat(Alert): Update guidelines for new navigation

What does this MR do?

The placement of alerts has been revised. Global alerts are now placed below the breadcrumb bar instead of the navigation bar. Page-level alerts are now displayed near the top of a page, directly below the heading section, rather than below the navigation bar and above the breadcrumbs.

Does this MR meet the acceptance criteria?

  • The MR title and commit messages meet the [Pajamas commit conventions][commits].
  • The “What does this MR do?” section in the MR description is filled out, explaining the reasons for and scope of the proposed changes, per [“Say why not just what”][transparency].
    • For example, if the MR is focused on usage guidelines, addressing accessibility challenges could be added in a separate MR.
  • Relevant label(s) are applied to the MR.
  • The MR is added to a milestone.
  • If creating a new component page [from scratch][writing-documentation], it follows the [page template structure][page-template].
  • Content follows the [Pajamas voice and tone guidelines][voice-and-tone], falling back on the [GitLab Documentation Style Guide][style-guide] when needed.
  • Related pages are cross-linked, where helpful. Component pages have [related components and patterns][related] defined in their Markdown front matter.
  • If [embedding a Figma file][figma-embed], it follows the [Figma embed guide][figma-embed-guide].
  • Review requested from any [GitLab designer][design-reviewer] or directly from a [maintainer or trainee maintainer][pajamas-assignments].
  • Maintainer review follows the [Pajamas UX maintainer review checklist][pajamas-maintainer-checklist].
