…HTTP/CoAP - device & gateway MQTT, HTTP, CoAP attribute-request pages, plus edge mirrors - document fetch-all per scope (MQTT: empty value; HTTP/CoAP: allClientKeys/allSharedKeys) - replace non-working mosquitto sub/pub request examples with mqtt.js emulators - fix invalid gateway client/shared array example; deprecate legacy client/key/keys - add request-parameter tables; remove stale 'overlapping keys' note - all examples verified against a live instance

Pull request overview
This PR updates the ThingsBoard documentation to describe a unified attribute-request API behavior across MQTT/HTTP/CoAP and the Gateway API, including “fetch all” semantics and scope-separated responses, and adds runnable Node/mqtt.js example scripts referenced from the docs.
Changes:
- Documented per-scope “fetch all” behavior (
""for MQTT/Gateway keys,allClientKeys/allSharedKeysfor HTTP/CoAP) and clarified scope exclusion rules. - Updated Gateway attribute request/response docs to use
clientKeys/sharedKeysand describe scope-separated responses. - Added downloadable mqtt.js scripts for device and gateway attribute requests and linked them from the docs.

Overview
Documents the unified attribute-request API introduced in thingsboard/thingsboard#15865:
clientKeys/sharedKeysvalue returns the whole scope; HTTP/CoAP:allClientKeys=true/allSharedKeys=truequery params; Gateway: a request carrying only{id, device}returns both scopes.{"client": {...}, "shared": {...}}(the legacyvalue/valuesform is preserved and noted as deprecated).mqtt.jsNode emulator so they actually run end to end.Pages updated
