`CTRL+C` kills the dev and preview processes while the actual stop/quit command is documented here: https://docs.astro.build/en/reference/cli-reference/ While either way _works_, the command version exits gracefully and should be preferred.
Updates the welcome message to emphasize the graceful quit command.

Looks great, I always forget we have that graceful shutdown! (I will probably still use CTRL+C myself, ha)

CTRL+Ckills the dev and preview processes while the actual stop/quit command is documented here: https://docs.astro.build/en/reference/cli-reference/While either way works, the command version exits gracefully and should be highlighted for new users. One minor difference in the two versions when using powerline/OMP in a CLI is that
CTRL+Cwill display a script error after the process was killed while the command does not.Changes
q+ENTERwill stop the server.CTRL+Ckill process shortcut is no longer mentioned.Testing
This change is for a simple text string only. No specific tests reference this text in the codebase.
Docs
The docs are already clear enough, just the script message has not been updated: https://docs.astro.build/en/reference/cli-reference/
