OTA-1966: AGENTS: Drop 'Deploying CVO with Lightspeed Proposals' section

[wking]

We grew this recently in b0e4c90 (#1395). But I don't think we need it.

The proposal controller is gated behind TechPreviewNoUpgrade. To test on a Default feature set cluster...

But folks can test on a tech-preview cluster, and I don't see a need to have folks edit and recompile the cluster-version operator to test on Default-feature-set clusters, when we have official docs on how to set your non-production cluster TechPreviewNoUpgrade.

Build and push the skills image...

But we have official build of the skills image by both ART and CI:

$ oc -n ocp get -o json imagestream 5.0-art-latest | jq -r '.status.tags[] | select(.tag == "agentic-skills").items[] | .created + " " + .image'

and we'll soon be wiring those up to be included in the OpenShift release payload. Which will mean that folks who want to excercise custom skills image content will get that on presubmits in https://github.com/openshift/agentic-skills pulls, and Cluster Bot can generate new payloads which combine open agentic-skills pull requests with other open pull requests, and all the usual things.

Apply the prompt ConfigMap...

When enabled (e.g. in a TechPreviewNoUpgrade standalone cluster), the cluster-version operator will apply the cluster-update-advisory-prompt ConfigMap (and the other manifests associated with this functionality) automatically. There's no need for users to manually apply those manifests.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Documentation
  • Removed the “Deploying CVO with Lightspeed Proposals (Dev)” section from the contributor guide.
  • Simplified the documented setup by omitting several local deployment and environment configuration steps.
