Description

In the introductory pages: Getting Started, Design Notes, and any other ancillary docs there is no mention whatsoever of the CreateBaseline API. This API is mentioned in passing here.
It is extremely important to make implementors aware of it early on in the intro pages, otherwise they may be flying blind, making it difficult to estimate time and effort required.

Research direction

Start with docs/getting_started.md and DESIGN-NOTES.md, then inspect the CreateBaseline API reference at src/InstrumentationEngine.Api/InstrumentationEngine.idl near line 277. Update the introductory and relevant ancillary documentation so implementors encounter the API and understand its importance early; done means the requested references and context are present.
