Address review feedback on PR music-assistant#626: - Remove external docs link and UPnP-internals (SCPD, GENA, UDN/UUID5, SOAP fault codes, DIDL-Lite XEE). - Replace features/services tables with concise user-focused bullets. - Simplify settings descriptions and Docker note.

Thanks for the review — rewrote the page to be user-focused. Dropped UPnP internals (SCPD, GENA, UDN/UUID5, SOAP fault codes, services/actions table), the technical SSDP multicast WARNING, the multi-player internals subsection, and the external docs link. The page now covers only what a user needs: short feature list, settings, Docker note, and the security note about accepted URL schemes. |

Summary
Adds a new documentation page for the DLNA Receiver plugin, which exposes Music Assistant as a UPnP/DLNA MediaRenderer on the local network. External DLNA-aware apps (BubbleUPnP, mconnect, foobar2000, Kodi, Qobuz, etc.) discover the virtual renderer over SSDP, send audio via standard DLNA (
SetAVTransportURI/Play), and MA routes the stream through its audio pipeline to any configured player.Changes
