Code Review
This pull request removes all references to the deprecated TiDB Lightning Web Interface across the documentation, reflecting its removal in version 8.5.7, and updates instructions to use the command-line interface, HTTP API, or the IMPORT INTO statement instead. The review feedback is highly constructive and focuses on aligning the updated text with the repository style guide, specifically recommending sentence case for headings, avoiding passive voice, using the second person ("you"), and correcting grammatical and version formatting issues.
Important
The consumer version of Gemini Code Assist on GitHub is being sunset. Starting June 18, 2026, new organization installations will be blocked, and all code review activity will officially cease on July 17, 2026.

Could we mention tidb-lightning-ctl here too? The deprecation plan names both CLI tools as immediate alternatives, and tidb-lightning-ctl helps with checkpoint and troubleshooting operations.
