Update to the new RV Live

In RV release Spring '24 (3.107), RV Live was redesigned to be more user-friendly, for a better user experience. If you are already using RV Live and want to use the new RV Live, simply switch out the old Record Validation page component with the new RV Live component. Read more in Update to the new RV Live‍.
