Lukas BernertandClaude Fable 5 459436e87f docs: update compute size descriptions (CPU column, pg_restore guidance) (#49996)
## What kind of change does this PR introduce?

Docs update: aligns compute descriptions with the current compute
options.

Fixes PROD-655

## What is the new behavior?

- compute-and-disk: CPU column now shows "Shared" (Nano–Medium) and
"Dedicated · N vCPUs" (Large and above), matching the pricing page
- migrating-to-supabase/postgres: pg_restore -j guidance keyed to the
vCPU count per compute size
- which-version-of-postgres: uses show server_version;, which gives
simpler, architecture-agnostic output
- High-CPU troubleshooting guide: recommends upgrading compute size
instead of naming specific instance types
billing-on-supabase: "64 cores" → "64 vCPUs"
- Section anchors unchanged (deep-linked from other pages)

## Self-review

Content-only MDX change:

- pnpm lint:mdx: no findings in the changed files (all reported
errors/warnings are pre-existing in unrelated files)
- pnpm build:guides-markdown: builds clean; generated .md exports for
the changed pages verified
- All pages verified rendering in the local dev app on current master
- Swept apps/docs for remaining core-count / instance-type mentions in
compute descriptions

## Summary by CodeRabbit

* **Documentation**
* Updated PostgreSQL version-checking instructions to use `show
server_version;` with simplified output.
* Clarified compute sizing terminology using shared and dedicated CPU
allocations and vCPU-based descriptions.
  * Updated billing guidance to describe scaling up to 64 vCPUs.
* Revised database restore guidance with current compute tiers and
recommended parallelization settings.
* Simplified high-CPU troubleshooting guidance to recommend temporarily
scaling CPU capacity.
* Added writing guidance to consistently use “vCPU” and “vCPUs” for
Supabase compute resources.

It's important to know which version of Postgres you are running as each major version has different features and may cause breaking changes. You may also need to update your schema when [upgrading](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/pgupgrade.html) or downgrading to a major Postgres version.
Run the following query using the [SQL Editor](/dashboard/project/_/sql) in the Supabase Dashboard:
```sql
show server_version;
```
Which should return something like:
```
15.1
```
This query can also be executed via `psql` or any other query editor if you prefer to [connect directly to the database](/docs/guides/database/connecting-to-postgres#direct-connection).
