f5b33104ef [DOCS] Overhaul new-user onboarding, home page, and upload flow (#2347)
Getting started:
- New 15-minute Getting Started guide featuring the two most popular
  tracks (BLE on esp32dev-ble, RF on lilygo-rtl_433), with broker setup
  and a verification step
- Sidebar restructured around the new-user journey; upload options
  numbered by ease; Gitpod upload method removed

Home page:
- VitePress hero with clear actions, larger hero image
- How-it-works pipeline diagram shared as a component (responsive via
  container queries), use-case grid, bigger video tiles without the
  image lightbox, refreshed press coverage list, functions pills
- Support section pointing to Theengs Bridge and
  github.com/sponsors/1technophile

Upload flow:
- Decision-oriented upload landing page (journey strip, method cards,
  comparison table)
- Pre-flight checklist and driver troubleshooting on the web installer
- Guided environment picker (bridge + hardware wizard) replacing the
  filter chips, with manifest-verified recommendations
- Post-flash next-steps card linking to the portal and verification

Board images:
- custom_img key in environments.ini and board photos for all
  web-flashable environments (licenses recorded); private prod_env.ini
  environments excluded from boards-info.json

Corrections:
- RF frequency coverage stated as 433/315/868/915MHz
- Removed references to the retired compatible.openmqttgateway.com
  site (BLE list is decoder.theengs.io), the discontinued Theengs
  Plug, and the private sponsor forum
