Evals docs (#7460)
Still don't have good "how to's", and the guides / examples section
could be further pruned and improved, but this PR adds a couple examples
for each of the common evaluator interfaces.

- [x] Example docs for each implemented evaluator
- [x] "how to make a custom evalutor" notebook for each low level APIs
(comparison, string, agent)
- [x] Move docs to modules area
- [x] Link to reference docs for more information
- [X] Still need to finish the evaluation index page
- ~[ ] Don't have good data generation section~
- ~[ ] Don't have good how to section for other common scenarios / FAQs
like regression testing, testing over similar inputs to measure
sensitivity, etc.~

"# Pairwise String Comparison\n",
"\n",
"Often you will want to compare predictions of an LLM, Chain, or Agent for a given input. The `StringComparison` evaluators facilitate this so you can answer questions like:\n",
"\n",
"- Which LLM or prompt produces a preferred output for a given question?\n",
"- Which examples should I include for few-shot example selection?\n",
"- Which output is better to include for fintetuning?\n",
"\n",
"The simplest and often most reliable automated way to choose a preferred prediction for a given input is to use the `pairwise_string` evaluator.\n",
"\n",
"Check out the reference docs for the [PairwiseStringEvalChain](https://api.python.langchain.com/en/latest/evaluation/langchain.evaluation.comparison.eval_chain.PairwiseStringEvalChain.html#langchain.evaluation.comparison.eval_chain.PairwiseStringEvalChain) for more info."
