Stephen Martindale f0c504947c Docs: App::run() might never return; effect of WinitSettings::return_from_run. (#7228)
# Objective

See:

- https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/7067#issuecomment-1381982285
  - (This does not fully close that issue in my opinion.)

## Solution

This merge request adds documentation:

1. Alert users to the fact that `App::run()` might never return and code placed after it might never be executed.
2. Makes `winit::WinitSettings::return_from_run` discoverable.
3. Better explains why `winit::WinitSettings::return_from_run` is discouraged and better links to up-stream docs. on that topic.
4. Adds notes to the `app/return_after_run.rs` example which otherwise promotes a feature that carries caveats.

Furthermore, w.r.t `winit::WinitSettings::return_from_run`:

- Broken links to `winit` docs are fixed.
- Links now point to BOTH `EventLoop::run()` and `EventLoopExtRunReturn::run_return()` which are the salient up-stream pages and make more sense, taken together.
- Collateral damage: "Supported platforms" heading; disambiguation of "run" → `App::run()`; links.
   
## Future Work

I deliberately structured the "`run()` might not return" section under `App::run()` to allow for alternative patterns (e.g. `AppExit` event, `WindowClosed` event) to be listed or mentioned, beneath it, in the future.
