Merge 'doc: update the 5.1 upgrade guide with the mode-related information' from Anna Stuchlik

This PR adds the link to the KB article about updating the mode after the upgrade to the 5.1 upgrade guide.
In addition, I have:
- updated the KB article to include the versions affected by that change.
- fixed the broken link to the page about metric updates (it is not related to the KB article, but I fixed it in the same PR to limit the number of PRs that need to be backported).

Related: https://github.com/scylladb/scylladb/pull/11122

Closes #12148

* github.com:scylladb/scylladb:
  doc: update the releases in the KB about updating the mode after upgrade
  doc: fix the broken link in the 5.1 upgrade guide
  doc: add the link to the 5.1-related KB article to the 5.1 upgrade guide

Updating the Mode in perftune.yaml After a ScyllaDB Upgrade
==============================================================
In version 2022.1, we improved ScyllaDB's performance by `removing the rx_queues_count from the mode
In versions 5.1 (ScyllaDB Open Source) and 2022.2 (ScyllaDB Enterprise), we improved ScyllaDB's performance by `removing the rx_queues_count from the mode
condition <https://github.com/scylladb/seastar/pull/949>`_. As a result, ScyllaDB operates in
the ``sq_split`` mode instead of the ``mq`` mode (see :doc:`Seastar Perftune </operating-scylla/admin-tools/perftune>` for information about the modes).
If you upgrade from an earlier version of ScyllaDB, your cluster's existing nodes may use the ``mq`` mode,

Update the Mode in perftune.yaml
------------------------------------
Due to performance improvements in version 5.1, your cluster's existing nodes may use a different mode than
the nodes created after the upgrade. Using different modes across one cluster is not recommended, so you
should ensure that the same mode is used on all nodes. See
:doc:`Updating the Mode in perftune.yaml After a ScyllaDB Upgrade</kb/perftune-modes-sync>` for instructions.
