New FAQ page explaining E2B's usage-based pricing formula (vCPU + RAM per second while running), with a worked example, how to read compute via getInfo and lifecycle webhooks, and a webhook-receiver code example that computes per-run cost. Registered in the FAQ nav group.

A timeout resolves to a pause or a kill, so listing timed-out separately is redundant. Also remove the disk-storage sentence from the intro.

Summary
Adds a new FAQ page: How do I calculate the price of a sandbox? (
docs/faq/calculate-sandbox-price.mdx), registered in the FAQ nav group.Customers building internal cost/usage tracking repeatedly ask how to turn sandbox usage into a dollar figure. This page answers it directly.
Contents
(vCPU x vCPU_rate + RAM_GiB x RAM_rate) x seconds_running, billed per second only while running.<Note>pointing to the pricing page / cost calculator as the source of truth so the numbers can't silently go stale.getInfo()/Sandbox.list()for live sandboxes (cpuCount/memoryMB), and lifecycle webhooks (killed/pausedcarryevent_data.executionwith resources + duration) for completed runs.Notes
