closes #2273

Users often ask about the different ways to work with capa results. There was no single place comparing CLI, IDA Pro, Ghidra, CAPE/sandbox, and Web (capa Explorer).

Changes

  • Added a new "Ways to consume capa output" section at the top of doc/usage.md with a concise table listing: CLI, IDA Pro, Ghidra, CAPE (dynamic sandbox), and Web (capa Explorer) -- including the output/interface and typical use for each.

Checklist

  • No CHANGELOG update needed
  • No new tests needed
  • No documentation update needed
  • This submission includes AI-generated code and I have provided details in the description.
