* docs: standardize on "NetBird client" over "agent" for the client software
* docs: address review feedback
- fix "a software" grammar and use lowercase "NetBird client"
- define routing peer as a peer whose client bridges, keeping peer and client distinct
- correct kernel-space claim: the kernel WireGuard data path is what runs in the kernel
- clarify which address the application uses to reach the SOCKS5 proxy from a separate container
* Include Alpine Linux installation steps
Add installation instructions for Alpine Linux, including CLI and desktop app setup.
* Revise Alpine instructions
I omitted the fact that the community repo had to be enabled in my original commit
* Apply suggestion from @braginini
* Changes requested by @TechHutTV
Updated installation instructions for Alpine Linux and added commands for starting the NetBird service.

The Wails 3 desktop app links GTK 4.10+ (GtkFileDialog) and WebKitGTK 6.0,
verified against the shipped v0.75.0 netbird-ui binary. The previously
documented floor of Debian 12 / Ubuntu 22.04 is below that: both ship
WebKitGTK 6.0 but only GTK 4.8 and 4.6, where the app starts and then
crashes on the first file dialog.
- Document the real floor per distribution and mark RHEL 9, Amazon Linux 2
and Amazon Linux 2023 as CLI only.
- Name the GTK 4 and WebKitGTK 6.0 packages in the install commands, since
netbird-ui does not declare them as dependencies.
- Note that EPEL provides webkitgtk6.0 on RHEL/AlmaLinux/Rocky 10.
- Remove libappindicator from the RPM install lines. The tray is a D-Bus
StatusNotifierItem and does not link libappindicator; keep the GNOME
extension step, which is still required for the tray to appear.
- Note that Linux netbird-ui packages are x86_64 only.
* Reference the config-file bootstrap workflow from install and peer pages
Link Bootstrap peers via config file from the setup-key sections of the
Linux, Windows, macOS, and Docker install pages, from the Setup Keys
page, and from the Kubernetes routing-peers guide. The page was only
reachable from the sidebar, so this surfaces the unattended deployment
workflow where headless and at-scale enrollment is already discussed.

* Clarify the Kubernetes example demonstrates setup-key enrollment
The manifest passes a setup key but does not mount a pre-populated
config, so reword the cross-link: the example enrolls with a setup key,
and the bootstrap guide covers the additional config-file step.
