Cuts the quick start down to four short steps, and corrects it.

The page was working against the defaults. It told readers to set start_with_request=trigger and then run XDEBUG_TRIGGER=1 php your-script.php — configuring a trigger the debugger does not need. Verified against the shipped image: mode='debug', start_with_request='yes', client_host='localhost', client_port='9003'.

1. Load it — nothing to do for the interpreter; one zend_extension=php_debugger.so line for the extension.

2. Delete everything elsemode, start_with_request, and any line loading Xdebug. No trigger, no environment variable.

3. Check where it connectsclient_host and client_port defaults, with the container caveat pointing at the Docker page.

4. Set a breakpoint — listen on 9003 and run.

Known follow-up

The home page's Quick Start card still shows the old trigger command and now contradicts this page. Left for the separate home page pass.
