Follow-up to #62, and the answer to the open question it left.

The Logs dashboard renders auth.log verbatim in three panels. A capture of it
contains the operator's username, workstation source addresses and session IDs.
There is no time range or filter that avoids this — showing log lines is what the
dashboard does.

#62 handled that with a warning in docs/images/README.md: read the image
carefully before committing it. That is a check that runs when someone remembers,
on the image that is hardest to skim, at the end of the job. This removes the
dashboard from the capture set instead, so the check runs every time and cannot
be skipped.

Four dashboards, four screenshots. docs/images/README.md now explains the
absence rather than leaving a gap someone would later fill by "fixing" the
script.

If it is ever wanted, redaction is the thing to build first — not a reminder.

Its Authentication log panel renders auth.log verbatim — real usernames, real
source addresses, real session IDs — and so do the other two stream panels.
That is not a bad window or an unlucky moment: showing log lines is what the
dashboard is for, so there is no capture of it that does not publish them.

The previous arrangement was a warning in docs/images/README.md telling whoever
runs the capture to read the image carefully before committing it. That is a
check which runs when someone remembers, on the image that is hardest to skim,
at the end of the job. Removing the dashboard from DASHBOARDS is a check that
runs every time.

Four dashboards, four screenshots. If the Logs one is ever wanted, the thing to
build first is redaction, not a reminder.
