doc: remove outdated Chrome 66 and ndb references from debugger 
Remove the Chrome 66.0.3345.0 version check (Chrome 66 shipped in
2018), the claim that Chrome DevTools doesn't support debugging worker
threads (which uses time-tied language), and the recommendation to use
ndb (which has been archived since July 2023).

Fixes: #54078
