Update provisioning documentation and scripts for improved Proxmox deployment</message>

<message>Add a new step-by-step guide for deploying the CM4 eMMC provisioning service on a new Proxmox instance, enhancing clarity for users. Update existing documentation to reflect changes in network configuration options, including the introduction of LAN subnet settings for DHCP and TFTP. Modify cloud-init scripts to ensure proper management of DNS settings and improve the handling of network interfaces. Additionally, enhance the toggle script for network boot to dynamically read the LAN gateway from configuration files, streamlining the setup process and improving user experience.

Optional env: `CM4_BACKUPS_HOST_PATH=/path`, `DEPLOY_ROOTFS_STORAGE=local-lvm`, `DEPLOY_LXC_ROOT_PASSWORD=secret` (set root password in LXC and enable SSH), `DEPLOY_LXC_SSH_KEY=/path/to/pub` (default: `~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub` or `id_rsa.pub` — copied to LXC root so you can `ssh root@<LXC-IP>`).
**Network (WAN / LAN):** `DEPLOY_LXC_WAN_BRIDGE=vmbr0` (default), `DEPLOY_LXC_WAN_IP=dhcp` (default or e.g. `192.168.1.10/24`), `DEPLOY_LXC_LAN_BRIDGE=vmbr1` (if set, add eth1 as LAN), `DEPLOY_LXC_LAN_SUBNET=10.20.50.1/24` (LXC IP on LAN; default `10.20.50.1/24` when LAN bridge is set). Example: `DEPLOY_LXC_WAN_BRIDGE=vmbr0 DEPLOY_LXC_LAN_BRIDGE=vmbr1 DEPLOY_LXC_LAN_SUBNET=10.20.50.1/24 ./scripts/deploy-to-proxmox.sh root@host`.
The script **finds the container by hostname `cm4-provisioning`** (any existing ID). If none exists, it **creates a new LXC with the next available ID**. So you can redeploy repeatedly without assuming a fixed ID like 201.
