Adds a new page covering how to roll back, identify, and recover pinned Workflows affected by a faulty Worker Deployment Version. Covers stopping the rollout, identifying affected Workflows via Search Attributes, choosing between Versioning Override and Reset-with-Move based on Workflow state, handling eventual consistency via drainage status, and cleanup.

  • New page: docs/production-deployment/worker-deployments/recover-pinned-workflows.mdx
  • Cross-link from worker-versioning.mdx (Moving a pinned Workflow section)
  • Cross-link from troubleshooting/index.mdx
  • sidebars.js: added under Worker deployments
