Feat: SPO Guide for Dingo Pools

---

Summary by cubic

Adds a complete SPO guide for running Dingo Pools on the Preview testnet, plus an Operational Tips index, a Grafana dashboards guide, and a clearer node update path. Also updates Quick Start timing/links and upgrades cardano-cli to 11.0.0.0 with safer install steps.

• Refactors

  • New SPO overview at SPO Guides/001-spo-guide.md with Preview-only compatibility, a 7-step checklist, security notes, and air‑gapped assumptions.
  • Sub-guides: pool keys (KES/VRF/op cert with startKesPeriod calc, hot/cold key separation, VRF permission hardening, copy node.cert to BP); payment/stake keys + funding; stake address registration; and pool registration using an env + script (metadata hash/URL verify, two relays, pledge delegation, --witness-override, stakepoolid.txt, and dingo.yaml updates).
  • Quick Start/navigation: time updated to 20–30 min; guides renumbered (003 startup service, 004 Cardano CLI) with fixed links; added quick-view commands for /etc/dingo/dingo.yaml and /etc/systemd/system/dingo.service.
  • Operational Tips index at SPO Guides/006-operation-tips-and-maintenance.md; update guide at SPO Guides/007-update-dingo-node.md refined with copy to /usr/local/bin/, verify via which dingo and dingo version, release notes/config review, explicit systemd stop/start, and log troubleshooting commands.
  • Grafana dashboards guide at SPO Guides/008-grafana-dashboard.md covering setup for Grafana 12+ and Prometheus (port 12798), install of marcusolsson-dynamictext-panel, provisioning/manual import, optional alert rules, template variables, and troubleshooting.

• Dependencies

  • Upgraded cardano-cli to 11.0.0.0; corrected install order (chmod +x before sudo mv).
