Updated the article "Learning about services - tutorial".

This update is part of #6827.

Description

Related to: ros2/ros2#1725

  • Title changed to "Learning about services - tutorial".
  • Sections rewritten to reflect the new content model.
  • Replaced command-named headings with task-oriented headings.
  • Reworded explanations for clarity, including stronger explanations in the Setup and the service echo steps.
  • Clarified expected terminal output by separating sample results into their own console blocks.
  • Added distro notes for ros2 service info --verbose (Lyrical and later) and for turtlesim_msgs/srv/Spawn vs turtlesim/srv/Spawn on older distributions.
  • Moved conceptual Background material into Summary and linked to How ROS works; kept the hands-on CLI flow the same.
  • Added an FAQ section and related content.
  • Tested on Ubuntu. The underlying procedures are unchanged.

Did you use Generative AI?

Yes, GPT-5 for the FAQ section.

Additional Information

Documentation updates from 3di Information Solutions, agreed with Geoff and Tully.
