System Settings > Log Settings:
- Add a warning to Enable Log Rotate After explaining this is new in
  2608. Earlier server versions kept Device Control, Content Aware
  Protection, and eDiscovery logs indefinitely with no automatic
  deletion; 2608 enables three-month rotation by default on migration.
  Recommend reviewing the value and using Export Logs to preserve
  compliance evidence separately.

Migration guides (both legacy 5.x and current-image paths):
- Add a Log Retention Verification step to Post-Migration
  Verification, before Audit Log Backup Verification, prompting
  admins to check and configure Enable Log Rotate After post-migration.

- Merge the two stacked log rotation warnings in System Settings into one,
  open with the behavior change, explain the Audit Log Backup side effect,
  and state that logs already past the retention period are deleted on the
  first rotation cycle within five minutes of startup
- Move Log Retention Verification ahead of Third-Party Integration
  Reconfiguration in both migration guides so it's reached before rotation runs
- Add the first-rotation-cycle warning, the units and disable value, and a
  link to the Log Settings reference in both migration guides
- Replace the vague export rationale with the performance benefit
- Use the arrow separator consistently in the migration guides and reconcile
  the menu name to Reports and Analysis

…ion warnings

- Audit Log Backup deletion is an option, not automatic: System Maintenance
  documents a per-job choice of whether to keep or delete logs from the server,
  so 'archives logs off the server and clears them from the database' overstates it
- Make the first-rotation-cycle sentence active per the Netwrix voice rules, and
  restore the actionable 'export before you migrate' guidance in both guides

Flagged by Flaviu: the setting can't actually be set to 0. Confirmed
in code (configure/actions.class.php) that the save handler requires
1-360; PHP's empty(0) check means 0 is silently rejected with no
error shown, so there's no supported way to fully disable log
rotation once Communication V2/CrateDB is active — 1 month is the
minimum.

Corrects the same false claim in three places: the Log Settings
bullet and warning in systemsettings.md, and the identical Log
Retention Verification step duplicated across both migration guides.

Document EPP 2608 automatic log rotation as a behavior change
Add a RHEL and CentOS Preparation section covering the kernel-modules-extra
package RHEL 10 needs, firewalld rules (or disabling it), and the
NetworkManager/nm-cloud-setup bug on RHEL/CentOS releases before 8.4.
Sourced from https://docs.k3s.io/installation/requirements#operating-systems,
scoped to what applies to Access Analyzer's single-node install.

Update requirements.md's OS row to mention RHEL/RPM-based support and
link to the new section, since it previously implied only Debian-based
distributions were supported.
Document RHEL and CentOS installer prep steps
