Docs: Create page detailing how plugins can use RBAC
Which areas does this feature request relate to
- [ ] Create Plugin
- [ ] Sign Plugin
- [ ] Plugin E2E
- [ ] Plugin Meta Extractor
- [X] Documentation
Problem
There is no docs page that details how a plugin developer can use RBAC in their plugin.
Solution
Create a page in our docs website that explains how developers can use this feature. The rbac example readme is quite extensive and could likely be used as reference. We could probably align this with the release of the new RBAC frontend interface due in Grafana 11.2.0.

@jackw can we adjust the example, especially this part https://github.com/grafana/grafana-plugin-examples/blob/main/examples/app-with-rbac/README.md#perform-access-control-checks-in-the-frontend now that we have https://github.com/grafana/grafana/pull/89047?

We can but shouldn't we coordinate it with the release of Grafana 11.2?
Picking this one up and using @jackw's branch (https://github.com/grafana/grafana-plugin-examples/compare/main...jackw%2Fmigrate-rbac-runtime) as a reference. We may also need to create a separate docs page to cover RBAC in datasource plugins. As Jack mentioned we should hold off on merging these new docs until 11.2.
