NOTE: do not merge until package is checked out and available in certified nodes

Description

Adds a docs page for the new @flowfuse-certified-nodes/s7 Edge Certified Node, at /docs/flowfuse-nodes/edge/s7/, and lists it in the Edge index.

It's a first, minimal version, laid out like the CIP Suite page: overview, what S7 communication is, supported hardware (with default rack/slot per PLC family), requirements (including the PUT/GET and optimized block access settings S7-1200/1500 need), installation, and the nodes in the suite.

Other details can follow in a later iteration.

After installation, the nodes appear under the **S7 Suite** category in the palette, and the connection is set up in an **s7-config** configuration node.

We should also add a variable addressing table similar to the one in this node README.

As stated in the OP, this is very much an MVP so that we have docs on day one - my hope (🤞) is that someone (you 😉) will improve them to the same standard as the CIP Suite 😄 in a future iteration.

The link check on main fails with a bad link /node-red/flowfuse/edge/s7, because the node-red redirect list in nuxt/redirects-node-red.ts has no S7 entry. #5935 adds it.
