Subject: [PATCH] [Fix #19667] Move Async.StartChild to "Starting Async
 Computations" docs category

`Async.StartChild` is a mainstream way to kick off concurrent child work,
so it belongs in the same docs section as `Async.StartChildAsTask` rather
than under "Cancellation and Exceptions". This only changes the rendered
docs grouping; no code or behavior impact.

 ### Fixed
 
 * Fix `Array.exists2` documentation examples to use equal-length arrays; the previous examples would throw `ArgumentException` at runtime instead of returning the documented `false`/`true` values. ([PR #19672](https://github.com/dotnet/fsharp/pull/19672))
+* Move `Async.StartChild` to the "Starting Async Computations" docs category alongside `Async.StartChildAsTask`. ([Issue #19667](https://github.com/dotnet/fsharp/issues/19667))
