What does this PR do? What is the motivation?
Related to APPSEC-71422
The Java tab of User Monitoring and Protection only showed the OpenTracing +
Blocking.forUser().blockIfMatch()approach. Since dd-trace-java v1.48.0 (DataDog/dd-trace-java#8482),datadog.appsec.api.user.User.setUser(id, metadata)sets the user tags and performs user blocking in a single call, like theset_userAPIs documented for the other languages.This PR makes
User.setUser()the recommended Java API, documents its requirements (tracer anddd-trace-apiv1.48.0+, metadata keys without theusr.prefix,BlockingExceptionmust not be caught, AAP enabled for blocking), and keeps the previous sample in a collapsed "Earlier versions (before v1.48.0)" section.Merge readiness
