Why:

The current documentation contains outdated billing and upgrade instructions that do not match the current GitHub UI.

What's being changed (if available, include any code snippets, screenshots, or gifs):

Updated the billing navigation from "Additional billing details" to "Licensing".

@ashis-baral Can I get more details on what you were trying to do? Because "Additional billing details" absolutely does still exist, and this reusable is used in a lot of places. It's unlikely this change would be correct for all of them, so I need to know what you were trying to do so we can consider a more targeted change.

@Sharra-writes Thanks for asking! I tested the GitHub Pro upgrade flow using the steps in the documentation: https://docs.github.com/en/billing/how-tos/manage-plan-and-licenses/upgrade-plan.

On my personal account, when I navigated to Settings → Billing and licensing, I found the Upgrade to GitHub Pro option on the Licensing page. That's why I changed the instructions to point to Licensing.

I also noticed that Additional billing details still exists in the sidebar, so my intention wasn't to say that it had been removed. My goal was only to make the navigation match the GitHub Pro upgrade flow that I tested.

I've attached screenshots showing both the Licensing page (where the upgrade option appears) and the Additional billing details page for context.
