657-684: Consider parameterizing version numbers in deployment examples.The Ansible playbook hardcodes version "4.11.1" in URLs. While this makes the example concrete and copy-pasteable, consider adding a variable at the top for easier maintenance.

Fix heading level hierarchy.
The heading jumps from h2 (line 566) to h4 without an h3, violating markdown heading hierarchy. Change #### Examples to ### Examples.
