Pull request overview
This PR updates the IdentityServer documentation to reflect current best practices and correct outdated information. The changes modernize the content by clarifying the product description, updating protocol references to use current terminology, and revising guidance for JavaScript client implementations.
Key changes:
- Enhanced product description with emphasis on Duende IdentityServer as a framework for building standards-compliant authentication servers
- Updated OAuth terminology from "OAuth2" to "OAuth 2" and "OAuth 2.x" for consistency with current standards
- Revised JavaScript clients section to focus on the Backend-for-Frontend (BFF) pattern instead of outdated JavaScript client library approaches
- Fixed broken repository links and updated reference documentation URLs

Summary
This doc needed an update badly. I've clarified the description of the product, removed outdated information and added new where relevant.
Completely removed the reference to the javascript client library since that is no longer a best practice. Instead clarified the part about BFF.
Also: fixed broken links
Fixes #Issue_Number (if available)
