Great set of changes! Do you want/need to run this past any of the Nexus folks? This bit Nexus is Generally Available. Standalone Nexus Operations and Nexus Standalone Activities are at Pre-release, so their APIs are experimental and may change in backwards-incompatible ways. 
just stuck on the end of the intro paragraph feels like too much rapid fire info, can you wrap it in an ::info ? |

Good catch! |

For When to call a Nexus Operation, we say "The Operation is part of a multi-step orchestrated process." This also sounds like a normal workflow. Can do say a little more to differentiate? |

What does this PR do?
Adds a new Encyclopedia page,
/nexus/choosing-an-approach, covering which mechanism toreach for among four options: starting a Workflow directly, exposing a Nexus Service,
calling one with a Standalone Nexus Operation, and backing an Operation with a Nexus
Standalone Activity.
The page is a capability table followed by three decisions: whether you need a service
boundary, how to call the Service, and how to implement the Operation.
Also adds the sidebar entry under Encyclopedia > Temporal Nexus.
