Pull request overview
This PR updates the Neighborhoods API documentation to clarify how it should be configured within the solver phase pipeline, specifically when users explicitly define a local search phase.
Changes:
- Adds a
constructionHeuristicentry to the XML solver configuration example for Neighborhoods API usage. - Adds a note explaining that Neighborhoods runs as part of Local Search and therefore expects an initialized solution.
- Adjusts the surrounding docs to make the setup steps more explicit for users configuring phases manually.

If you have never needed the solverconfig.xml file, but want to try the Neighborhoods API, it's not entirely clear that you also need to add a CH phase when you explicitly set the localsearch phase. Tried to clarify that here.
