Brian J. Rubinton 5c666918fc docs: clarify dhi.io proxy access in the mirroring guide (#26232)
## Description

The third-party mirroring guide describes image layers as stored on
`dhi.io`, which makes it unclear why the examples use Docker Hub for
images and the Scout registry for attestations.

Clarify that `dhi.io` provides access to DHI catalog images and their
signed attestations, while customer mirrors and customized images in
organization repositories are accessed through Docker Hub. This explains
why the examples copy images from Docker Hub and attestations from
`registry.scout.docker.com` into the same destination repository.
Copying only the image does not preserve its attestations.

The proxy's repository routing rejects names containing `/` and maps
accepted names into the `dhi/` namespace: [routing
implementation](https://github.com/atomisthq/dhi-proxy/blob/e47c68d6473b2b45a4aeb3be55808eee58902732/internal/proxy/middleware.go#L161-L188).
The public [image reference
documentation](https://docs.docker.com/dhi/how-to/use/#pull-run-and-reference-dhis)
also distinguishes catalog references on `dhi.io` from organization
repositories on Docker Hub.

## Validation

- `npx --no-install rumdl fmt content/manuals/dhi/how-to/mirror.md`
- `scripts/lint.sh content/manuals/dhi/how-to/mirror.md` with
repository-pinned rumdl 0.2.49 and Vale 3.17.0: no errors, warnings, or
suggestions
- `git diff --check`

This is a prose-only change. The mirroring commands are unchanged. A
full site build was not run.
