What does this PR do? What is the motivation?
A recent correspondence with a customer over an issue with our Istio tracing integration brought to light that our documentation is outdated.
We have a project planned to rewrite our Istio tracing documentation entirely, but for now I think we can remove unnecessary out-of-date information.
This revision removes a table that related Istio's release version to the corresponding Datadog C++ tracing library release version. That correspondence is no longer relevant, the table was out of date, and the context about environment variables included a broken link.
Our support policy for Istio is "when a new Istio release comes out, we support it." I think it's best to leave that implicit, and avoid customers inferring it from a table about library versions.
