What does this PR do? What is the motivation?

This PR updates the public control plane monitoring documentation with instructions for how to enable control plane monitoring using the new datadog Helm chart options for users on EKS or OpenShift. It is the helm equivalent of the Operator method provided, so both sections have been refactored into tabs and the section headers were renamed to "Recommended Method".

Merge instructions

This will be ready to merge once the helm chart update is released: DataDog/helm-charts#2220

Just noting there are a couple of broken link on this tab:

  1. [datadog-operator Helm chart][12].
  2. Or, for OpenShift users who installed the operator through OperatorHub/Marketplace (the recommended method)

For links that are on a tab, the link reference must be contained within the tab. For example, for [datadog-operator Helm chart][12], you would put [12]: https://github.com/DataDog/helm-charts/tree/main/charts/datadog-operator before the closing {{% /tab %}} element.
