Summary
This PR updates the Helm Quickstart Guide to avoid relying on Bitnami charts
and classic Helm repositories in the main onboarding flow.
The guide now demonstrates Helm fundamentals using a locally generated chart
via
helm create, while still acknowledging third-party repositories andOCI-based charts as valid options.
Motivation
Bitnami has announced upcoming catalog and image changes, which may require
additional configuration (such as legacy image overrides) and can be confusing
for new users following the Quickstart.
Since the Quickstart is intended to be a stable, beginner-friendly introduction
to Helm, depending on a specific third-party vendor introduces unnecessary
fragility.

This is a documentation-only change and does not modify Helm behavior.
