This commit updates the package installation
instructions in version 5.4.
- It updates the variables to include "5.4"
as the version name.
- It adds the information for the newly supported
Rocky/RHEL 9 - a new EPEL download link is required.

```console
$ journalctl --user start scylla-server -xe
Failed to add match 'start': Invalid argument
```
`journalctl` expects a match filter as its positional arguments.
but apparently, start is not a filter. we could use `--unit`
to specify a unit though, like:
```console
$ journalctl --user --unit scylla-server.service -xe
```
but it would flood the stdout with the logging messages printed
by scylla. this is not what a typical user expects. probably a better
use experience can be achieved using
```console
$ systemctl --user status scylla-server
```
which also print the current status reported by the service, and
the command line arguments. they would be more informative in typical
use cases.

cassandra-stress connects to "localhost" by default. that's exactly the
use case when we install scylla using the unified installer. so do not
suggest "-node xxx" option. the "xxx" part is but confusing.

should not "tar" to tar, otherwise we'd have following error:
```
tar (child): tar: Cannot open: No such file or directory
tar (child): Error is not recoverable: exiting now
tar: Child returned status 2
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
```
as "tar" is not the compressed tarball we want to untar.

strictly speaking, `sh` is not necessarily bash. while `install.sh`
is written in the Bash dialect. and it errors out if it is not executed
with Bash. and we don't need to add "-x" when running the script, if
we have to, we should add it in `install.sh` not ask user to add this
option. also, `install.sh` is executable with a shebang line using
bash, so we can just execute it.
so, in this change, we just launch this script in the command line
sample.

in comparison with java-11-openjdk, java-11-openjdk-headless does not
offer audio and video support, and has less dependencies. for instance,
java-11-openjdk depends on the X11 libraries, and it also provides
icons representing JDK. but since scylla is a server side application,
we don't expect user to run a desktop on it. so there is no need to
support audio and video.
in this change, we just suggest the a "smaller" package, which is
actually also a dependency of java-11-open-jdk.

This commit adds the information on how to install ScyllaDB
without root privileges (with "unified installer", but we've
decided to drop that name - see the page title).
The content taken from the website
https://www.scylladb.com/download/?platform=tar&version=scylla-5.2#open-source
is divided into two sections: "Download and Install" and
"Configure and Run ScyllaDB".
In addition, the "Next Steps" section is also copied from
the website, and adjusted to be in sync with other installation
pages in the docs.

This PR moves the installation instructions from the [website](https://www.scylladb.com/download/) to the documentation. Key changes:
- The instructions are mostly identical, so they were squeezed into one page with different tabs.
- I've merged the info for Ubuntu and Debian, as well as CentOS and RHEL.
- The page uses variables that should be updated each release (at least for now).
- The Java requirement was updated from Java 8 to Java 11 following [this issue](https://github.com/scylladb/scylla-docs/issues/3419).
- In addition, the title of the Unified Installer page has been updated to communicate better about its contents.

This commit improves the language and syntax on
the Unified Installer page. The changes cover:
- Improving the wording.
- Replacing "Scylla" with "ScyllaDB"
- Fixing language mistakes
- Fixing heading underline so that the headings
render correctly.
This commit replaces the OUTDATED list of platforms supported
by Unified Installer with a link to the "OS Support" page.
In this way, the list of supported OSes will be documented
in one place, preventing outdated documentation.
Fixes https://github.com/scylladb/scylla-enterprise/issues/3036
This commit adds support for Ubuntu 22.04 to the list
of OSes supported by ScyllaDB Enterprise 2021.1.

This is V2 of https://github.com/scylladb/scylladb/pull/14108
This commit moves the installation instruction for the cloud from the [website ](https://www.scylladb.com/download/)to the docs.
The scope:
* Added new files with instructions for AWS, GCP, and Azure.
* Added the new files to the index.
* Updating the "Install ScyllaDB" page to create the "Cloud Deployment" section.
* Adding new bookmarks in other files to create stable links, for example, ".. _networking-ports:"
* Moving common files to the new "installation-common" directory. This step is required to exclude the open source-only files
in the Enterprise repository.
In addition:
- The Configuration Reference file was moved out of the installation
section (it's not about installation at all)
- The links to creating a cluster were removed from the installation
page (as not related).

This commit adds the OS support for ScyllaDB Enterprise 2023.1.
The support is the same as for ScyllaDB Open Source 5.2, on which
2023.1 is based.
After this commit is merged, it must be backported to branch-5.2.
In this way, it will be merged to branch-2023.1 and available in
the docs for Enterprise 2023.1
Closes: #13858
Fixes https://github.com/scylladb/scylladb/issues/13138
This PR fixes the outdated information about the recommended
OS. Since version 5.2, the recommended OS should be Ubuntu 22.04
because that OS is used for building the ScyllaDB image.
This commit needs to be backported to branch-5.2.

This commit removes the pages that describe Enterprise only features
from the Open Source documentation:
- Encryption at Rest
- Workload Prioritization
- LDAP Authorization
- LDAP Authentication
- Audit
In addition, it removes most of the information about Incremental
Compaction Strategy (ICS), which is replaced with links to the
Enterprise documentation.
The changes above required additional updates introduced with this
commit:
- The links to Enterprise-only features are replaced with the
corresponding links in the Enterprise documentation.
- The redirections are added for the removed pages to be redirected to
the corresponding pages in the Enterprise documentation.
This commit must be reverted in the scylla-enterprise repository to
avoid deleting the Enterprise-only content from the Enterprise docs.
