Description
[Bing Maps For Enterprise](www.bingmapsportal.com) has been deprecated for Free users since June 30th 2025, for enterprise customers from June 30th 2028. I believe this is being replaced with [Azure Maps](https://azure.microsoft.com/products/azure-maps/) per the deprecation notice at www.bingmapsportal.com. This could/should be addressed in the docs/comments here:

Start with CesiumRasterOverlays/include/CesiumRasterOverlays/BingMapsRasterOverlay.h around lines 88-89 and review the linked Bing Maps deprecation notice and Azure Maps page. Update the relevant documentation or comment to reflect the deprecation and replacement, then verify that the header remains accurate and readable.
