Chris Farhood 24033ca977 docs: remove incorrect watchPlugins: false references
Remove all references to the incorrect `config.watchPlugins: false`
requirement that was believed necessary for Headlamp v0.39.0+.

Investigation revealed that plugins work correctly with the default
`watchPlugins: true` setting. The earlier documentation was based on
a misunderstanding of the plugin loading mechanism.

Changes:
- Remove watchPlugins: false from all YAML configuration examples
- Remove warning sections about watchPlugins requirement
- Update troubleshooting guides to focus on actual issues
- Simplify installation instructions by removing unnecessary config

Files updated:
- README.md (main installation docs and troubleshooting table)
- docs/DEPLOYMENT.md
- docs/TROUBLESHOOTING.md
- docs/getting-started/* (quick-start, installation, prerequisites)
- docs/deployment/* (helm, production)
- docs/troubleshooting/* (common-issues, README)
- Multiple other doc files formatted by prettier

This cleanup ensures ArtifactHub and GitHub documentation show
correct, simplified installation instructions.

Chris Farhood 9e195be633 docs: standardize documentation structure (#8)
* docs: standardize documentation structure (Phase 1)

Implement Phase 1 of documentation standardization plan:

**New Documentation Structure:**
- docs/README.md - Documentation hub with quick links
- docs/getting-started/ - Installation, prerequisites, quick-start
- docs/deployment/ - Kubernetes, Helm, production guides
- docs/architecture/ - Overview, data-flow, design-decisions, ADR template
- docs/troubleshooting/ - Quick diagnosis, common issues, RBAC, network
- docs/development/ - Testing guide (moved from docs/TESTING.md)

**Granular Breakdown:**
- Split DEPLOYMENT.md → installation.md, kubernetes.md, helm.md, production.md
- Split ARCHITECTURE.md → overview.md, data-flow.md, design-decisions.md
- Split TROUBLESHOOTING.md → README.md, common-issues.md, rbac-issues.md, network-problems.md

**New Content:**
- Quick Start guide (5-minute setup)
- Prerequisites checklist
- Production deployment best practices
- ADR template and index
- Quick diagnosis table

**Updated:**
- README.md now links to new documentation structure
- All documentation cross-referenced with relative links

Implements standardization plan from docs/DOCUMENTATION_STANDARDIZATION_PLAN.md
