docs: the moved documents live on the documentation site

INSTALL.md, SERIAL.md, docs/COOLING.md, docs/LIGHTBURN.md,
docs/MOTION.md, docs/SAFETY.md, docs/UPDATE-SYSTEM.md, docs/VIDEO.md and
their images are pages on https://docs.forgefirm.org/ now. Every
reference in the README, BRINGUP, the kas config, the cold-build
workflow, forgetest, and the bench scripts points to the site page. The
README carries the beta banner. docs/ keeps BRINGUP.md and
CAMPAIGN-LOG.md.

No catalog consequence: the deleted files are documents, and the code
changes are comment and help-text repoints only.
