I re-edited the guide to follow an easier-to-scan, step-by-step format.
- Rewrote steps into shorter, directive numbered lists in the imperative
mood.
- I added intro lines and note blocks to separate essential instructions
from the supporting context.
- Reorganized post-setup sections into clearer buckets: Disabling,
troubleshooting, end-user experience, and advanced GitOps setup.
- Tightened up UI references using bold instead of quotes.
No technical meaning was changed (I hope). The goal was to make the
guide easier to scan, follow, and maintain, as part of an ongoing effort
to improve doc content consistency and readability.
* Updated MySQL instructions to use `bitnamilegacy/mysql`
* Updated Redis Instructions to use `bitnamilegacy/redis`

- Context: Folks from Microsoft are going to create a LinkedIn post
talking about Entra conditional access. They're going to link to this
guide in the LinkedIn post.
Re-ordered article structure & rewrote some clumsy passages but kept the
vibe much of the content. Also changed some factual inaccuracies.

## Testing

Closes https://github.com/fleetdm/confidential/issues/12068
I shortened and sharpened up the Series B article by cutting about a
third of the length while keeping the narrative intact. I also updated
the meta description to be clearer and more concise.
Added reference to FDA requirement along with links to enable FDA and a
pre-created mobileconfig per discussion in product office hours
