Problem: The bitcoind_clients sample config still described a stale global-lock bottleneck for parallel block downloads.
Bitcoin Core v25 improved this via bitcoin/bitcoin#26308.
Later bitcoin/bitcoin#26415 improved raw-block getblock further.

Fix: Update the note to reflect that Bitcoin Core handles parallel RPC getblock calls better since v25.

The bitcoind_clients sample config described a stale global-lock bottleneck for parallel block downloads.
Replace the stale warning with a versioned note that Bitcoin Core v25 improved RPC getblock scaling.
