What does this PR do? What is the motivation?

Adds a note to the Permissions section (Advanced Configuration) of the Jobs Monitoring for Databricks page stating that the connecting user or service principal must have the Databricks SQL Access and Workspace Access workspace entitlements enabled, in addition to the other permissions already listed there.

This requirement applies regardless of whether Workspace Admin privileges or the granular workspace-level permissions are granted, so it is surfaced as an info callout at the top of the section.

Super nitpicky, but I can see that these are in the opposite order elsewhere in the file, and parallelism is just so satisfying (and can make docs easier to act on for users!)

- **Workspace Admin privileges** (recommended): Grant {{< ui >}}Workspace Admin{{< /ui >}} privileges. This allows Datadog to manage init script installations and updates automatically, reducing the risk of misconfiguration.
- **Granular permissions**: If you need more granular control, grant these minimal permissions to the following [workspace level objects][19] to still be able to monitor all jobs, clusters, and queries within a workspace:

| Object | Permission |

Should the links in this table be moved to the Object column rather than the Permission column? It looks like they all go to pages about the objects rather than the permissions. If there's more nuance here, then disregard!
