docs: Fix reference to SQL QA migration (#25157)
**Description:** I found that the link to the notebook in the Migration
notes is broken, i found that it was linked to this file
https://github.com/langchain-ai/langchain/blob/v0.0.250/docs/extras/use_cases/tabular/sql_query.ipynb
and i think now this tutorial
https://github.com/JuanFKurucz/langchain/blob/master/docs/docs/tutorials/sql_qa.ipynb
is the best fit for this reference

Migrating

🚨Breaking Changes for select chains (SQLDatabase) on 7/28/23

In an effort to make langchain leaner and safer, we are moving select chains to langchain_experimental. This migration has already started, but we are remaining backwards compatible until 7/28. On that date, we will remove functionality from langchain. Read more about the motivation and the progress here.

Migrating to langchain_experimental

We are moving any experimental components of LangChain, or components with vulnerability issues, into langchain_experimental. This guide covers how to migrate.

Installation

Previously:

pip install -U langchain

Now (only if you want to access things in experimental):

pip install -U langchain langchain_experimental

Things in langchain.experimental

Previously:

from langchain.experimental import ...

Now:

from langchain_experimental import ...

PALChain

Previously:

from langchain.chains import PALChain

Now:

from langchain_experimental.pal_chain import PALChain

SQLDatabaseChain

Previously:

from langchain.chains import SQLDatabaseChain

Now:

from langchain_experimental.sql import SQLDatabaseChain

Alternatively, if you are just interested in using the query generation part of the SQL chain, you can check out this SQL question-answering tutorial

from langchain.chains import create_sql_query_chain

load_prompt for Python files

Note: this only applies if you want to load Python files as prompts. If you want to load json/yaml files, no change is needed.

Previously:

from langchain.prompts import load_prompt

Now:

from langchain_experimental.prompts import load_prompt
