Description

From CE 3.24, the product does not publish a tigera/calicoctl image. calicoctl ships as standalone binaries only. I verified this against the latest 3.24-1 hashrelease: the image list has no calicoctl image, and the /binaries/ directory has calicoctl binaries for Linux (amd64/arm64), macOS (amd64/arm64), and Windows.

This PR updates operations/clis/calicoctl/install.mdx in the next docs and version-3.24-1:

  • Remove the Install calicoctl as a container section. It told users to pull an image that no longer exists, and it used $[componentImage.calicoctl] and $[releases.0.components.calicoctl.*], which fail at build time now that the 3.24 releases.json has no calicoctl component.
  • Add the Linux ARM64 binary to the binary and kubectl plugin download tabs.

Older versioned docs and Calico OSS pages are unchanged. OSS still ships a calicoctl image.

Note: this branch is stacked on the unmerged prep-ce-324-1 cut of version-3.24-1, so the diff shows the cut commit until that merges. Only 6a9f7c9 is this PR's change.

From CE 3.24 there is no tigera/calicoctl image; calicoctl ships as
binaries only (verified against the 3.24-1 hashrelease image list).
Remove the container install section, which also used the now-missing
calicoctl component from releases.json, and add the Linux ARM64 binary
to the download tabs. Applies to next docs and version-3.24-1.
