…ed topic modeling to both of the respective documentations so that users immediately know that there are two very similar methods for providing pre-defined topics

Thank you for the PR! I understand the need to compare these two variants of what is something very similar. Perhaps at some point we would need to compare all variants against each other (maybe a table of sorts) so that users understand the many options out there and when to use it.
That said, left a couple of comments to clear up some things here and there.

| Difference between Zero-shot and Guided BERTopic: | ||
| Guided BERTopic is similar - yet not equivalent - to [Zeros-shot Topic Modeling](https://maartengr.github.io/BERTopic/getting_started/zeroshot/zeroshot.html). | ||
| Use Guided BERTopic to boost the importance of certain keywords. Use [Zeros-shot Topic Modeling](https://maartengr.github.io/BERTopic/getting_started/zeroshot/zeroshot.html) to try to categorize documents into predefined topics ("zero-shot topics") before clustering the remaining unclassified documents using the main algorithm of BERTopic. |

I feel like we have to further specify that Guided BERTopic is not primarily used to boost the importance of certain keywords but to guide clusters more towards predefined seed topics. That would make it a bit more clear that we do not focus on the importance of certain keywords (that's more of an side-effect).

The linter job seems to succeed now :-) |
Thanks! Did you see my comment above? |

What does this PR do?
Cross-reference from the zeroshot doc to the guided doc (and vice versa).
Add a short explainer of the differences between zeroshot and guided.
Fixes #2237
