…tails

- Rewrite intro to match the established pattern (while PHP can be
  installed from source...)
- Add missing simpara after &warn.install.third-party-support;
- Add version substitution note: replace 83 with the version available
  on the Alpine release
- Remove redundant php83-common from apk add (auto-dependency of php83,
  confirmed via Docker)
- Explain the php83-fpm package / php-fpm83 service naming difference
- Rename sect2 title to 'Better control of configuration' for consistency
  with dnf.xml and pacman.xml
- Replace 'modules' with 'extensions' (correct PHP terminology)
- State explicitly that extensions are auto-enabled via conf.d on install
  (confirmed via Docker: apk add php83-gd creates conf.d/00_gd.ini)
