Adds the capacitive touch slider tutorial that was missing from the docs.
This addresses the last unchecked doc item in tscircuit/tscircuit#786.

The tutorial covers:

  • What capacitive touch sliders are and how they work on PCBs
  • Using coveredWithSolderMask={true} on smtpad elements
  • A basic single-pad example with interactive PCB preview
  • A 5-segment capacitive touch slider layout with configurable segments
  • Key properties table explaining the solder mask approach
  • Tips for good capacitive performance (spacing, routing, ground plane)
