Add content on generative AI to the "Seeking help" episode

[liz-is]

This adds a new section to the "Seeking Help" episode, titled "Other ways to get help" that discusses searching the internet, StackOverflow, talking to another person, and generative AI chatbots e.g. ChatGPT as possible ways to get more help when faced with errors while coding. The existing material on StackOverflow and useful functions in R that help formulate a question (and reproducible example) was incorporated into this new section.

These changes are based on the changes made to the python-novice-gapminder lesson by @tobyhodges. I haven't made any major to changes to the text introduced there, I've just tried to incorporate it into the flow of this episode.

Feedback welcome!

Thanks @liz-is for adding this information.
The other PR has also been merged and it looks good to me.

Thanks @skanwal!

One thing I forgot to put in the initial comment: I think as with the linked PR, it'd be good to keep this open for a week or so to get feedback from community members, since opinions on genAI vary widely!

Thanks so much for putting this together @liz-is 🙌
