📄 Description

Summary
This PR adds a new tutorial that provides a comprehensive guide for integrating with the Open WebUI backend API, including:

Step-by-step instructions
Real-world curl examples
Clear explanation of key endpoints
References to the classic main backend setup

After active discussions on the Open WebUI Discord server, I noticed many community members were facing difficulties understanding and using the backend API correctly.

To help address this recurring issue, I created this tutorial to simplify the integration process and make backend usage more accessible to new users. @Classic298
