This PR attempts to add some additional recommendations around sizing. A common ask of our customers is what size of a node (and how many nodes) they should have in their cluster for x number of developers.

This is very difficult to determine, as the work a developer is doing within their environment can vary greatly, requiring a different amount of resources. This PR addresses that with giving recommendations of initial sizing + measuring and iterating to right size it over time.

@khorne3 I continued the "quote" block we had here, but the design of that may look weird with so much text in a "quote" block. Let me know if you'd like that pulled out into normal text or something else. 👍 See below screenshot of the large quote block:

We also recommend [monitoring](../guides/admin/usage-monitoring.md) your usage
to determine whether you should change your resource allocation. Accepting a
peak utilization of RAM of around 50% and CPU of around 70% is a good way to
balance performance with cost.

"peak utilization" is poorly defined so this last sentence may confuse people more than help. I'd recommend dropping it. The rest looks good to me.
