docs(seo): upstream-query landing page + migration guide + comparison post

[vieiralucas]

Summary

Batch 1 of the upstream-query SEO/LLM visibility push. Targets the `localstack free alternative` / `replace localstack` / `localstack not free anymore` query cluster that is spiking post-paywall with no dominant canonical winner yet.

• New landing page /localstack-alternative/ — non-dated, keeps current. Hero + FAQ block seeded with quotable numbers (23 services, 1,680 ops, 54k Smithy test variants, 6 SDK languages) for LLM citation density.
• New blog post /blog/migrate-from-localstack/ — step-by-step migration w/ copy-paste configs for docker-compose, GitHub Actions, Terraform, CDK, Serverless Framework.
• New blog post /blog/localstack-alternatives-compared/ — honest fit-based comparison across fakecloud, MiniStack, floci, Moto, LocalStack Pro. No fabricated benchmarks; positioning and architecture only.
• README — added "Common use cases" table mapping upstream queries (test Lambda locally, mock DynamoDB, fake AWS server, Moto equivalent for Go/Java/Node, integration test AWS in GitHub Actions, etc) to copy-paste commands.
• Homepage — stats refreshed to current numbers (23 services / 1,680 ops / 6 SDKs, Bedrock and API Gateway v2 rows added to compare table).
• New template `page.html` for non-dated landing pages (no author/date chrome, unlike blog posts).

Existing `/blog/localstack-alternative/` post left untouched per the "blog posts are point-in-time" rule. The new `/localstack-alternative/` page is a living landing page at a different URL.

Dev.to cross-posts and awesome-list PR bodies are staged locally in `marketing/` (gitignored as usual) for manual publication.

Test plan

• `zola build` succeeds locally (52 pages, 0 orphan)
• New pages render at expected paths: `/localstack-alternative/`, `/blog/migrate-from-localstack/`, `/blog/localstack-alternatives-compared/`
• CI green
• Merge and wait for fakecloud.dev to deploy; then spot-check the three URLs live
• Dev.to cross-posts published under Lucas's account (manual)
• Awesome-list PRs opened (manual, bodies drafted in `marketing/awesome-list-prs.md`)

<violation number="1" location="website/content/blog/migrate-from-localstack.md:216">
P2: The `serverless.yml` example uses an unsupported config shape (`custom.endpoints`), so endpoint override will not actually be applied.</violation>

P2: Avoid recommending `curl | bash` in docs; it executes remote content immediately. Use a download-then-run flow so users can inspect the script before execution.</violation>

<violation number="1" location="website/templates/index.html:51">
P2: The added service list now claims EventBridge Scheduler support, but the page’s Supported services section still omits it, creating inconsistent product coverage messaging on the same page.</violation>
