Request for documentation

From pull request qgis/QGIS#33952
Author: @m-kuhn
QGIS version:

[server] do not drop layers with duplicate names

PR Description:

When multiple layers with the same name are present, still render all of them.

Fix #33928

Documentation

Update the QGIS server documentation that by default layer names will be used to expose layers through WMS. If multiple layers have the same name, they will be merged to a single WMS layer and cannot be requested individually and project maintainers need to take care of these layers being compatible (TODO: what does compatibility mean: CRS, fields, ...?).

Alternatively there is an option to use layer ids in the server properties page which will offer mutiple layers with the same names as individual layers.
