Add a new lab demonstrating Redpanda's shadow linking feature for disaster recovery on Kubernetes. The lab deploys two single-node clusters and configures continuous replication of topics, consumer group offsets, and Schema Registry data. Includes three demo scenarios: - Basic topic shadowing - Schema Registry shadowing - Consumer group failover Based on https://github.com/pmw-rp/shadowing-demo
✅ Deploy Preview for redpanda-labs-preview ready!

Replace bash wrapper scripts with direct rpk commands in the README. Users can now copy commands directly from the documentation instead of running numbered scripts. This makes the lab clearer and more educational.
- Use correct xref path for shadow linking docs - Add ^ to external links for new tab behavior - Fix invalid category: Replication -> Data Replication
- Add kind and Docker to prerequisites - Add step to create kind cluster before running setup - Update clean up to delete kind cluster - Add .gitignore for pid files
- Add progress messages for each step - Suppress helm notes, repo updates, and K8s warnings - Add set -e to exit on errors - Show next steps on completion
Use helm upgrade --install so script can be re-run
