Restore Azure Blob Storage + ID-attribute docs, fix nav description (#9096)
* Restore Azure Blob Storage docs and fix nav description PR #8976 (merged for v11.9.0) was accidentally reverted by the "V11.8 Docs" merge (#8974), which removed both the azure-blob-storage.rst walk-through page and the Azure sections in environment-configuration-settings.rst. This restores that content and adds the nav entry with corrected, action-oriented wording. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01739QHYVMKh6R81gcqEfGgP * Add Azure Blob Storage page to the hidden toctree The bullet-list entry alone isn't enough for Sphinx to include the page in the nav sidebar; it also needs to be listed in the toctree directive, which was dropped by the same revert. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01739QHYVMKh6R81gcqEfGgP * Restore ID attribute case-sensitivity notes PR #9020 was accidentally reverted from master by the "V11.8 Docs" merge (#8974), which removed the case-sensitivity notes for the AD/LDAP ID attribute, AD/LDAP Group ID attribute, and SAML ID attribute settings.

If a user's ID Attribute changes, a new Mattermost account is created that is not associated with the previous account. If you need to change this field after users have signed-in, use the :ref:`mmctl ldap idmigrate <administration-guide/manage/mmctl-command-line-tool:mmctl ldap idmigrate>` command.

The ID attribute value is matched verbatim - Mattermost applies no case normalization. With PostgreSQL's default case-sensitive collation, a change in casing is treated as a new user and a separate account is created. Ensure your AD/LDAP server returns this attribute with consistent casing.
