Improve Symstore proxy documentation #1455

Closed loewenheim closed 1 month ago

loewenheim commented 1 month ago

Symbolicator can be used as a proxy for configured symbol sources. The proxy is queried like a Symstore server. However, not all query forms that are possible in Symstore are supported by all layouts. For example, #1451 results because the unified layout doesn't allow looking up executables without a debug id, even though that is in principle supported by Symstore queries.

The documentation for the proxy feature doesn't mention this limitation. We should at least make it clear that using a source with a non-symstore layout limits the queries that will work.
