Adds a third deployment method to the Cloud Foundry deploy doc: pushing the pre-built stratos-cf-<version>.zip that each GitHub release now ships (from #5659).

Previously the doc only covered deploying from source (git clone → source buildpack build) and from the docker image. Neither describes the released binary package, which is the fastest path — the backend binary and compiled UI are already in the zip, so cf push uses binary_buildpack with no staging build.

The section walks through: download and unpack, edit the manifest, cf push from the folder. It calls out the two values an operator must change before pushing — ENCRYPTION_KEY (the shipped value is a public constant) and SESSION_STORE_SECRET (a placeholder) — steering both into the manifest env: block, consistent with the existing "Running Stratos in Production Environments" guidance, which it cross-links rather than duplicates.

Also corrects one link: the #console-fails-to-start anchor resolves to a heading in cf-troubleshooting.md, not this page.

Doc-only change.

Document pushing the pre-built stratos-cf-<version>.zip from a GitHub
release: unpack, set ENCRYPTION_KEY and SESSION_STORE_SECRET in the
manifest env (the shipped defaults are a public constant and a
placeholder), then cf push. Fix a stale same-page anchor to point at
cf-troubleshooting.md#console-fails-to-start.

LGTM - reasonable first attempt but needs more work.
