Document AudioEffectSpectrumAnalyzerInstance, clarify relationship with AudioEffectSpectrumAnalyzer

Fully document AudioEffectSpectrumAnalyzerInstance, including the weird
return value of its sole method, and add a link to it in
AudioEffectSpectrumAnalyzer to make it easier to figure out how to use.

<description>
This audio effect does not affect sound output, but can be used for real-time audio visualizations.
This resource configures an [AudioEffectSpectrumAnalyzerInstance], which performs the actual analysis at runtime. An instance can be acquired with [method AudioServer.get_bus_effect_instance].
See also [AudioStreamGenerator] for procedurally generating sounds.

<description>
Returns the magnitude of the frequencies from [param from_hz] to [param to_hz] in linear energy as a Vector2. The [code]x[/code] component of the return value represents the left stereo channel, and [code]y[/code] represents the right channel.
[param mode] determines how the frequency range will be processed. See [enum MagnitudeMode].
