b876938f6d docs: update documentation for Bun v1.3.2 features (#24503)
## Summary
Updates documentation for all major features and changes introduced in
Bun v1.3.2 blog post.

## Changes

### Package Manager
-  Document `configVersion` system for controlling default linker
behavior
-  Clarify that "existing projects (made pre-v1.3.2)" use hoisted
installs for backward compatibility
-  Add smart postinstall script optimization with environment variable
flags
-  Document improved Git dependency resolution with HTTP tarball
optimization
-  Add `bun list` alias for `bun pm ls`

### Testing
-  Document new `onTestFinished` lifecycle hook with simple example
-  Add to lifecycle hooks table in test documentation

### Runtime & Performance
-  Add CPU profiling with `--cpu-prof` flag documentation
-  Place after memory usage section for better flow

### WebSockets
-  Add `subscriptions` getter to existing pub/sub example
-  Add TypeScript reference for the subscriptions property

## Documentation Improvements
All documentation now consistently:
- Uses "made pre-v1.3.2" to clarify existing project behavior
- Simplifies default linker explanations with clear references to
`/docs/pm/isolated-installs`
- Uses `/docs/pm/isolated-installs` for all internal references
- Avoids confusing technical details in favor of user-friendly summaries

## Files Modified
- `docs/guides/install/add-git.mdx` - Added GitHub tarball optimization
note
- `docs/pm/cli/install.mdx` - Added installation strategies and smart
postinstall docs
- `docs/pm/cli/pm.mdx` - Added bun list alias
- `docs/pm/isolated-installs.mdx` - Updated default behavior section
with configVersion table
- `docs/project/benchmarking.mdx` - Added CPU profiling section
- `docs/runtime/bunfig.mdx` - Clarified install.linker defaults
- `docs/runtime/http/websockets.mdx` - Added subscriptions to example
and TypeScript interface
- `docs/test/lifecycle.mdx` - Added onTestFinished hook documentation

+The default is controlled by a `configVersion` field in your lockfile. For a detailed explanation, see [Package manager > Isolated installs](/docs/pm/isolated-installs).

 ### Default behavior
 
-- For monorepo projects, Bun uses the **isolated** installation strategy by default.
-- For single-project projects, Bun uses the **hoisted** installation strategy by default.
+The default linker strategy depends on your project's lockfile `configVersion`:
+
+| `configVersion` | Using workspaces? | Default Linker |
+| --------------- | ----------------- | -------------- |
+| `1`             |                 | `isolated`     |
+| `1`             |                 | `hoisted`      |
+| `0`             |                 | `hoisted`      |
+| `0`             |                 | `hoisted`      |
+
+**New projects**: Default to `configVersion = 1`. In workspaces, v1 uses the isolated linker by default; otherwise it uses hoisted linking.
+
+**Existing Bun projects (made pre-v1.3.2)**: If your existing lockfile doesn't have a version yet, Bun sets `configVersion = 0` when you run `bun install`, preserving the previous hoisted linker default.
+
+**Migrations from other package managers**:
+
+- From pnpm: `configVersion = 1` (using isolated installs in workspaces)
+- From npm or yarn: `configVersion = 0` (using hoisted installs)
 
 You can override the default behavior by explicitly specifying the `--linker` flag or setting it in your configuration file.

 ## Global Setup and Teardown
 
 To scope the hooks to an entire multi-file test run, define the hooks in a separate file.
