Add migration path for Saga alternatives to the reference guide #4619

Description

@hatzlj

Suggested Documentation change

Axoniq Framework 5 will introduce Workflows as a replacement for Sagas in Axon Framework 4.

While Workflows will be a very likely candidate to replace Axon Framework 4 Sagas in many projects, it is not yet available as production release but only as a preview (release scheduled later this year). Moreover it will also be part of Axoniq Framework, requiring an Axoniq license for production use.

However, there are other alternatives that can already be used to replace Sagas in certain constellations, namely "stateful event handlers" (event handlers processing different events and triggering side effects based on stored state). We want to add a migration path section covering this topic to support adoption of Axon Framework 5 for projects that need a Saga replacement.

This new section should additionally reference the Workflows preview as alternative solution.
