After migration of the internal test suite to Playwright, we could also
update user facing LiveServerTestCase docs to use Playwright references
for browser testing instead of Selenium.
These docs can be updated:
• docs/topics/testing/tools.txt
• docs/intro/tutorial05.txt
• docs/ref/contrib/staticfiles.txt
