Notes on drift observed during validation

• Current RSC docs and blog use renderServerComponent, createCompositeComponent, CompositeComponent, and low-level Flight APIs from @tanstack/react-start/rsc.
• Current Server Functions docs use .validator(...).
• Some current RSC docs snippets still show older .validator(...).
• Older official repo examples may still show renderRsc and older config shapes. Prefer the current docs above.
