Adds a docs guide, "Choosing a server-side package", that explains when to use `supabase-js`, `@supabase/ssr`, or `@supabase/server` when working with Supabase from JavaScript on the server. It includes a decision table and a short code example for each, with one rule up front: cookie-based sessions in SSR frameworks use `@supabase/ssr`, per-request header auth in Edge Functions and other backend runtimes uses `@supabase/server`, and `supabase-js` is the base client both wrap. The guide is surfaced from the Auth overview page and the sidebar, and is cross-linked from the `supabase-js` and `@supabase/server` reference introductions so it is reachable from where developers start. It also states that the packages coexist and are not replacements for each other, and keeps combining `@supabase/server` with `@supabase/ssr` as an advanced section. <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit - **New Features** - Added a guide explaining how to choose between Supabase server-side JavaScript packages. - Added the guide to Auth navigation and the getting-started content listings. - Added links to the new guidance throughout relevant JavaScript and server documentation. - **Documentation** - Clarified when to use cookie-based sessions versus header-based authentication. - Added package comparisons, usage examples, advanced guidance, and related next steps. - Updated spelling support for framework names used in the documentation. <!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> --------- Co-authored-by: github-actions[bot] <41898282+github-actions[bot]@users.noreply.github.com>

This reference documents every object and method available in Supabase's isomorphic JavaScript library, `supabase-js`. You can use `supabase-js` to interact with your Postgres database, listen to database changes, invoke Deno Edge Functions, build login and user management functionality, and manage large files.
