Slideshare was acquired from LinkedIn by Scribd in September 2020. Moving slideshare.com and slidesharecdn.com out of the LinkedIn entity (where they were added in 2019 commit 86a98e9 while still LinkedIn- owned) into a new Slideshare entity.

This PR updates the third-party entity mapping to reflect that SlideShare is no longer owned by LinkedIn, ensuring SlideShare traffic is attributed to a dedicated entity instead of LinkedIn in Lighthouse/DevTools-style reporting.
Changes:
- Removed
*.slideshare.comand*.slidesharecdn.comfrom theLinkedInentity’s domain list. - Added a new
Slideshareentity (category:content) with*.slideshare.com,*.slidesharecdn.com, and the primary*.slideshare.netdomain plus representativeexamples.

Slideshare was acquired from LinkedIn by Scribd in September 2020. The
*.slideshare.comand*.slidesharecdn.comdomains were added to the LinkedIn entity in 2019 (commit 86a98e9) while LinkedIn still owned Slideshare, and have been carried forward since.Moving them into a new
Slideshareentity (category:content). The other LinkedIn-owned domains in the entity (bizographics.com,oribi.io) remain untouched.Also adding
*.slideshare.net(Slideshare's primary domain) which wasn't in the entry before.Noticed this while auditing third-party impact on slideshare.net itself ... our own CDN traffic was reporting as third-party LinkedIn in Lighthouse / Chrome DevTools.
