Summary

To match the rebranded product name, the folder docs/core/porting/github-copilot-app-modernization was renamed to github-copilot-upgrade. This pull request updates internal links, global index files, and prereqs include files, and adds appropriate redirection entries. To avoid user confusion, the term "modernization" is now strictly limited to topics that involve actual Azure migration paths.

Fixes #55008

  • The prerequisites list says the Visual Studio optional component is "GitHub Copilot upgrade", but the install article in this PR says Visual Studio uses the "GitHub Copilot app modernization" optional component. Align the component name here to avoid setup failures due to mismatched UI labels.
    docs/core/porting/github-copilot-upgrade/install.md:156
  • The ordered list under "Disable the firewall" uses 1. then 2.. This repo's Markdown style expects ordered lists to use 1. for every item so numbering is handled consistently by Markdown renderers.
