This is a sub-issue of #1734, and the aim is to address the possibility of malicious dummy links in docs by reviewing the related Developer docs, and adding a warning where necessary.

Parent issue description

Related to: elastic/apm-agent-rum-js#1611

In recent light of finding malicious actors abusing dummy links in our Docs, we'd like to do the following additional step

[In the affected piece(s) of documentation, include a conspicuous security warning (e.g. a bright-colored box) advising users to "refrain from following any link to dummy URLs like [include non-clickable image copy of the original dummy URL] because threat actors are known to be misusing such URLs to distribute malware”.
