docs(web): show the doc version in the install manifest text (#1077)
The installation page said "the manifest for the latest release"
everywhere, even on older versioned docs and on the unreleased Dev
docs. Show the actual version instead (or "the latest development
snapshot from the main branch" on Dev docs).

The "Testing the latest development snapshot" section now explains,
on Dev docs, that the command above already installs that snapshot,
instead of duplicating it.

# Installation
:::important
1. The plugin **must** be installed in the same namespace as the CloudNativePG
operator (typically `cnpg-system`).
2. Keep in mind that the operator's **listening namespaces** may differ from its
installation namespace. Double-check this to avoid configuration issues.
:::
## Verifying the Requirements
Before installing the plugin, make sure the [requirements](intro.md#requirements) are met.
### CloudNativePG Version
Ensure you're running a version of CloudNativePG that is compatible with the
plugin. If installed in the default `cnpg-system` namespace, you can verify the
version with:
```sh
kubectl get deployment -n cnpg-system cnpg-controller-manager \
-o jsonpath="{.spec.template.spec.containers[*].image}"
```
Example output:
```output
ghcr.io/cloudnative-pg/cloudnative-pg:1.26.0
```
The version **must be 1.26 or newer**.
### cert-manager
Use the [cmctl](https://cert-manager.io/docs/reference/cmctl/#installation)
tool to confirm that `cert-manager` is installed and available:
```sh
cmctl check api
```
Example output:
```output
The cert-manager API is ready
```
Both checks are required before proceeding with the installation.
## Installing the Barman Cloud Plugin
import { InstallationSnippet, ManifestVersion } from '@site/src/components/Installation';
Install the plugin using `kubectl` by applying the manifest for <ManifestVersion />:
<InstallationSnippet />
Example output:
```output
customresourcedefinition.apiextensions.k8s.io/objectstores.barmancloud.cnpg.io created
serviceaccount/plugin-barman-cloud created
role.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/leader-election-role created
clusterrole.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/metrics-auth-role created
clusterrole.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/metrics-reader created
clusterrole.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/objectstore-editor-role created
clusterrole.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/objectstore-viewer-role created
clusterrole.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/plugin-barman-cloud created
rolebinding.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/leader-election-rolebinding created
clusterrolebinding.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/metrics-auth-rolebinding created
clusterrolebinding.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/plugin-barman-cloud-binding created
secret/plugin-barman-cloud-8tfddg42gf created
service/barman-cloud created
deployment.apps/barman-cloud configured
certificate.cert-manager.io/barman-cloud-client created
certificate.cert-manager.io/barman-cloud-server created
issuer.cert-manager.io/selfsigned-issuer created
```
Finally, check that the deployment is up and running:
```sh
kubectl rollout status deployment \
-n cnpg-system barman-cloud
```
Example output:
```output
deployment "barman-cloud" successfully rolled out
```
This confirms that the plugin is deployed and ready to use.
