Docs: explain tables in rounded containers

[nrps9909]

Description

• Document why opaque table cell backgrounds can cover a rounded parent container.
• Add a copy-ready .overflow-auto example that clips accented table backgrounds while preserving horizontal scrolling.
• Document --bs-table-bg: transparent as an alternative for plain tables, including when it is not sufficient.

Motivation & Context

Bootstrap 5.3's solid table cell backgrounds can obscure a wrapper's border radius. This documents both maintainer-endorsed workarounds from #41723 and clarifies the difference between plain and accented tables.
