Absorb storage/usage.md into the Storage hub: intro -> ## Storage types (cards) -> Access -> Named and unnamed storages -> Data retention -> Estimate your costs -> Rate limiting -> Share -> Concurrent access -> Delete storages. Delete usage.md and relocate the three overview graphics onto their type pages.

Sweep /platform/storage/usage#x cross-refs to /platform/storage#x across the type pages and academy, fixing the stale #sharing-storages-between-runs anchor to #share-storages-between-runs. Add an nginx 301 from /platform/storage/usage to /platform/storage.

Drop the access menu that restated its subheadings, hand the retention
numbers to the callout, collapse padded sentences to imperative voice.
Fix two latent defects (API clients access storages not just datasets;
mangled hyphen in the delete-via-API bullet) and strip stray zero-width
chars.

I'd change the info an accessing to a procedure, that follows this format.
