What does this PR do? What is the motivation?

https://datadoghq.atlassian.net/browse/NETPATH-1301

Adds a page for Network Path on-demand tests, which let users run a traceroute from a Datadog Agent host right away, from the UI or from Bits Chat. The page covers the Agent setup for Linux and Windows, the Execution Policy and permissions it needs, how to run a test from each entry point, and here to find the results. Private Action Runner and Execution Policy docs are referenced where applicable.

Merge readiness

AI assistance

Used Claude Code to draft the page from internal notes and to match the wording of the existing Network Path pages, and ran Vale on the result. I reviewed and edited the content, and tested the setup steps on Linux and Windows hosts.
