[doc] use "Looking Glass Server" instead of "producer"

Legacy Host compatibility
-------------------------
The Windows Host Application is no longer the recommended producer. B7 is the
last recommended version for users who require its non-capture mouse input

The Windows Host Application is no longer the recommended server implementation.
It is missing many of the features available in the Looking Glass IDD, such as:
* Lack of video capture overhead;
* Usage without a monitor or dummy plug connected;
* Automatically resizing the guest to fit the client application viewport;
* HDR support; or
* Usage in virtual machines without GPU acceleration.
