Description

Every APM agent has a performance tuning section in the documentation. We should add a similar topic to the PHP agent. As of right now, the following configs would be worth explaining (@SergeyKleyman, please add to this list if I've missed anything).

* [`transaction_sample_rate`](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/agent/php/current/configuration-reference.html#config-transaction-sample-rate)
* [`transaction_max_spans`](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/agent/php/current/configuration-reference.html#config-transaction-max-spans)

As additional configs like frame context, headers, request body, etc., are added, we can update these docs.
