Documentation for chrony receiver incorrectly references `address`

What happened?

Description

Documentation examples show the address key being used but this is no longer a valid key. The correct key is endpoint

Steps to Reproduce

Use the sample config and run a chrony receiver on a collector

Expected Result

The collector to start

Actual Result

The collector errors with the following:

 collector server run finished with error: failed to get config: cannot unmarshal the configuration: 1 error(s) decoding:

* error decoding 'receivers': error reading configuration for "chrony": 1 error(s) decoding:

* '' has invalid keys: address

Collector version

v0.102.1

Thanks for filing @twistypigeon, agreed this is incorrect. I've opened #34846 to fix it.
