Resolves #8410

This PR addresses the suggestion to make warnings for Stale Closures more detailed. Since this is the documentation repository, we added explicit <Pitfall> components to the documentation of useEffect, useCallback, and useMemo.

These additions explain:

  • How omitted dependencies capture stale values from the initial render.
  • The types of bugs this introduces.
  • The limitations of static analysis (eslint-plugin-react-hooks) and why it cannot replace a careful understanding of reactive dependencies.

Additionally, we expanded the Rule Details section of the exhaustive-deps rule page to align with the proposed wording from the issue.
