Adds a CLI reference entry for --timeout_worker_healthcheck, which has been undocumented outside the v1.84.0 release notes since it shipped in BerriAI/litellm#26622

The entry covers what the flag actually controls (the uvicorn multiprocess supervisor's worker health-check window, after which a non-responsive worker is SIGKILLed and replaced), the log lines a kill produces, the uvicorn>=0.37.0 requirement, and the failure mode that motivated this: on older uvicorn the flag is silently ignored apart from a startup warning, and uvicorn's built-in 5 second timeout applies instead. A support case showed an operator running with the flag set to 30 while the effective timeout may well have been 5 seconds, so the entry tells readers to check their startup logs for the warning

Build validated locally with npm run build; the only warnings are pre-existing broken anchors on old release-notes pages untouched by this change
