DESCRIBE YOUR PR

Direct use of sentry-native is no longer considered experimental. Replace the experimental notice with the list of downstream SDKs and mention the console SDKs.

Drop references to deprecated APIs in favor of their replacements: sentry_shutdown, sentry_regenerate_trace,
sentry_value_new_user_feedback, sentry_capture_user_feedback, and sentry_options_add_view_hierarchy.

Use the native backend explicitly in the CMake examples, split the install example into macOS, Linux, and Windows tabs, and replace the unmaintained exa with eza. Generalize the bundling note to cover both out-of-process backends, and document sentry-wer.dll and the handler and database paths for the native backend.

LEGAL BOILERPLATE

Look, I get it. The entity doing business as "Sentry" was incorporated in the State of Delaware in 2015 as Functional Software, Inc. and is gonna need some rights from me in order to utilize my contributions in this here PR. So here's the deal: I retain all rights, title and interest in and to my contributions, and by keeping this boilerplate intact I confirm that Sentry can use, modify, copy, and redistribute my contributions, under Sentry's choice of terms.

EXTRA RESOURCES
