What

Removes the "The Replicated KOTS entitlement is required..." :::note callout from the KOTS and kURL intro pages:

Also deletes docs/partials/kots/_kots-entitlement-note.mdx, an orphaned partial that was imported nowhere.

Why

The entitlement note caused more confusion than it was worth. Anyone who still has access to KOTS or kURL already has the entitlement, so the callout doesn't inform the reader of anything actionable.

Scope notes

  • The second note on these pages (KOTS/kURL availability / Support Lifecycle Policy) is untouched — it comes from the _kots-availability / _kurl-availability partials.
  • Factual entitlement references in the license-fields docs (licenses-install-types.mdx, licenses-using-builtin-fields.mdx) are left intact, since they describe built-in license field behavior rather than a redundant access callout.

Add documentation for artifact downloads (air gap bundles, Helm
tarballs, CLI tools), private registry image relocation for Embedded
Cluster, and Security Center features (fixable CVE filter, upgrade
recommendations, SBOM access for all roles). Clarify that Security
Center data is available for Helm and Embedded Cluster installations
only.

The "Replicated KOTS entitlement is required" note callout on intro-kots
and kurl-about caused more confusion than value: anyone with access to
KOTS or kURL already has the entitlement. Removes the inline note from
both intro pages and deletes the orphaned _kots-entitlement-note.mdx
partial (imported nowhere).

Leaves the factual entitlement references in the license-fields docs
intact, since those describe built-in license field behavior.
