Endpoints/Intune: update broken URL

Browse Source 
As reported in issue ticket #8729 (Related Link - Intune Infrastructure - 404), the link to "Network infrastructure requirements for Microsoft Intune" is outdated and returns a 404 error. This is a common issue for all Microsoft Intune links after Intune moved to the /mem/ directory hierarchy, and will continue to be an issue until all unchanged Intune link URLs in the Docs are updated.

Based on the discussed options and the current conclusion in the ticket page, it seems practical to use the URL https://docs.microsoft.com/mem/intune/fundamentals/intune-endpoints as well as using the page title "Network endpoints for Microsoft Intune" as the new URL description text.

Proposed change:
- replace broken URL with link to the /mem/ doc page 'intune-endpoints'
- use "Network endpoints for Microsoft Intune" as URL text

Whitespace changes:
- add editorial blank line between metadata and the page title
- remove redundant end-of-line whitespace (blanks)
- add MarkDown table column alignment for the endpoint tables
- standardize whitespace usage in a numbered list

Closes #8729
