Simplified the ugprades table (#782)
* Simplified the ugprades table This creates a list of links to include in the table so that it improves its readability in markdown. Then with more space to manage, I inlined the Notes into the table instead of having to scroll down to see the notes. * Update upgrade notes for DNN 10.2.3 to include manual upload instructions

> [!NOTE]
3765
> If you are in a situation where you are unable to make the 09.13.09 -> 10.x upgrade, there is a hot-fix release [09.13.10](https://github.com/dnnsoftware/Dnn.Platform/releases/tag/v9.13.10). This was a special release that contains security patches through the DNN 10.02.00 release and can be used during periods when a 10.x upgrade is not yet possible. For a successful upgrade, it is NOT necessary to stop at 09.13.10 prior to upgrading to 10.x. There is NO guarantee that any future 9.13.x releases will be made, therefore it is suggested to try to prepare for a 10.x upgrade as soon as practical.
