Is there a way to reference the table at https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/developer/python/sdk/authentication/credential-chains?tabs=dac#defaultazurecredential-overview instead? We will almost certainly forget to update this table as DAC evolves. I'd like the Learn doc to serve as the source of truth.

I have added the link to the ## Reference Links section.

My thought is that if the agent has an internet connection, it can access the link to obtain up-to-date information; otherwise, it can use the provided resource.

What are your thoughts?
