Update docs/configuring-playbook-etherpad.md: remove the detail about setting the unmaintained Dimension default to the Etherpad instance
We have recommended users to avoid installing Dimension since it was deprecated, so it is no longer sensible to discuss how it could be integrated with Etherpad. This commit also removes the known issue section as it describes the issue which can be experienced on Dimension only. Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org>pull/3954/head
