Users choose their own namespace for Headlamp. Replace all hardcoded
namespace references (headlamp, kube-system) in user-facing docs with
<your-namespace> so users substitute their own value.
Conventions:
- Helm install: --namespace <your-namespace> --create-namespace
- kubectl commands: -n <your-namespace>
- YAML metadata: namespace: <your-namespace>
- Prose: "the namespace where Headlamp is installed"
Out-of-scope references left untouched:
- kube-system in NetworkPolicy selectors (API server namespace)
- polaris namespace references (upstream workload namespace)
- Source code and test files

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.
