docs: make Let's Encrypt certificate instructions generic (#15)
Removed specific root/intermediate names (ISRG Root X1, R3) that go stale when Let's Encrypt rotates their chain. Users are now directed to the official Let's Encrypt certificates page to identify the currently active root and intermediate certificates.
