Adds docs/explanation/how-it-works.md, the missing one-sitting answer to "how does this actually work?".

methodology.md is now a precise reference — right for an evaluator, wrong for someone meeting the tool. This page carries the mental model: the one-sentence version, the formula once, a measured-vs-modelled table, the carbon-intensity fallback in a paragraph, and routes onward to methodology / accuracy / enable-rapl / references.

Also: one nav entry in mkdocs.yml, one row in the docs/index.md link table.

Stacks on #1377 (docs/methodology-rewrite) — every claim is checked against the rewritten methodology.md on that branch. Merge #1377 first.

uv run task docs passes, link checker included.

AMD GPUs are read through AMDSMI in codecarbon/core/gpu_amd.py, so
'Nvidia only' understated the measured case.
