Adds the Open OnDemand chapter under Platform Services, in the structure of the OneKS and Slurm chapters: Overview, Service Architecture, Quick Start, Configuration, Operations, and Monitoring and Troubleshooting.

The chapter documents the Open OnDemand appliance and OneFlow service proposed for the Community Marketplace in OpenNebula/marketplace-community#132. It covers the three roles (storage, portal, worker), the two Virtual Networks, the Sunstone wizard with screenshots, the Slurm cluster the service runs (the portal as controller, every worker a dynamic node, every session a Slurm job with its own cores and memory), the elasticity of the worker pool driven by the Slurm queue, an external Slurm cluster as a second target, the metrics exporter, and the troubleshooting paths. Everything described was run on an OpenNebula 7.4 testbed.

Files touched: content/platform_services/open_ondemand/ and assets/images/open_ondemand/. The architecture diagram is an SVG with light and dark variants. The branch builds clean with hugo on top of one-7.4, and every internal link resolves; the same commits apply to master without conflicts if you want it in devel as well.

…eenshots

The quick start now explains the two Virtual Networks before the wizard and
shows how to create the compute one in Sunstone. The Service Inputs step is
described tab by tab with the redesigned inputs of appliance 1.0.0-20260916,
where every input is optional and each optional feature sits behind a switch.
Configuration regroups the inputs by tab and adds the advanced attributes.
Screenshots retaken on the rebuilt appliance.

…s, two-column input tables, access from outside the management network

(cherry picked from commit 63fef7f)
…nt network, uid optional in the initial users

(cherry picked from commit 4536111)
…he service

The portal runs the controller and the accounting, every worker joins as a dynamic node,
the forms ask for cores, memory and GPUs, the pool grows on pending jobs and the oldest
worker drains before OneFlow removes it. The wizard loses the Slurm tab and an external
cluster becomes an advanced attribute.

(cherry picked from commit 061b03e)
…rm design, shorter Networks section

(cherry picked from commit 702f2a1)
…apter pattern

Shorter sentences and common words on the six pages, every value, command and
heading kept. Dates removed from the measurements. The chapter index carries one
paragraph in the body, as the Elastic Slurm chapter does, and says that the
service runs its own Slurm cluster.
…U model, faster scale up

The overview explains Slurm, munge and MPI for a reader who does not know
them, the configuration page shows an MPI job on two workers, the scale up
cooldown is 180 seconds and the requirements name the host CPU passthrough.
Two troubleshooting cases added: a service stuck in DEPLOYING_NETS and a
worker started before its portal.
