What

Updates one broken URL in the debugging guide that returns 404.

-For help, see: https://nodejs.org/en/docs/inspector
+For help, see: https://nodejs.org/api/inspector.html

The old path (/en/docs/inspector) no longer exists after Node.js restructured their documentation site. The replacement points to the current Node.js Inspector API docs which returns 200.

Why

This URL appears inside a terminal output code block showing what the Node.js debugger prints when launched with --inspect. A reader who follows the link to learn more about the inspector gets a 404.

A related fix for the separate Debugging Guide link (/en/docs/guides/debugging-getting-started) is tracked in #93958. This PR addresses the second broken Node.js URL in the same file that #93958 did not cover.

Checklist

  • Docs-only change. No behavior impact.
  • Replacement URL verified to return HTTP 200.
