61da2505fe docs: address review feedback on release process
- Add step to replace "main (planned for:" badges with release version
  when preparing release notes (hamishwillee suggestion)
- Define explicit exit criteria for alpha phase: test cards pass,
  regressions fixed/triaged, documentation complete
- Differentiate beta testing from alpha: beta is community-driven
  validation on extended hardware, not a repeat of alpha test cards
- Define explicit exit criteria for beta->RC transition
- Fix index.md formatting
