docs: Fix success/passing health check definition

This commit changes the health check example shown for the
success/failures_before_passing option to correctly show that the value
of `checks` is an array of objects, not an object.

Added text clarifying these check parameters are available in Consul
1.7.0 and later.

Expanded the health check to provide a more complete configuration
example.

Resolves #7114.

## Success/Failures before passing/critical
A check may be set to become passing/critical only if a specified number of consecutive
checks return passing/critical. Status will stay identical as before until
the threshold is reached.
In Consul 1.7.0 and later, a check may be configured to become passing/critical
only after a specified number of consecutive checks return passing/critical.
The status will not transition states until the configured threshold is reached.
This feature is available for HTTP, TCP, gRPC, Docker & Monitor checks.
By default, both passing and critical thresholds will be set to 0 so the check status will always reflect the last check result.
