Update documentation for Let's Encrypt errors

What does this MR do?

As part of #30146 (closed) this MR:

  1. removes old troubleshooting recommendation since it was fixed 8 months ago: gitlab-foss!30995 (diffs)
  2. add retrying process to docs

I tried to remember all the cases I've seen. 90% of the time the error will be generated by DNS propagation or long pages configuration reloading. In these cases just pressing Retry button is enough. Other cases I've seen were related to not properly configured DNS(having AAAA records or CAA policy)
