The notes for upgrading from DSE and DSE driver users are quite old (they refer to things that aren't really used anymore) and probably confuse more than clarify.

Installed packages for Rocky were confirmed (as much as possible) against the build scripts we use internally for creating Jenkins runners. I haven't run these commands and then tried to build on a brand new Rocky 8/9 install yet... that's probably an exercise worth undertaking at some point.

In essence a version of this PR for the CPP driver. Updating links to point to ASF JIRA, removing references to the old Google Group and pointing people at ASF Slack... that kind of thing.
I also made a conscious effort to remove any references to CentOS generally (but specifically CentOS 7) in the relevant docs. We ended support for CentOS when they moved to the stream model (see this PR and this ticket for more info). We still have CentOS 7 artifacts for older releases in the Artifactory server but I felt like keeping the refs around would be more confusing than just removing them.
On the topic of that Artifactory server... we need to find some way to get off of that and onto a more sane way to manage dependencies.
