Out of Scope Changes check ⚠️ Warning Beyond the primary network automation addition, the PR includes extensive terminology changes from 'Bare Metal Automation' to 'Bare Metal Management' across multiple files, which extends beyond the stated objective of issue #104. Consider whether terminology changes should be in a separate PR or clarify if they're part of the linked issue's scope. Document the reasoning for these additional changes in the PR description.

In `@docs/network-automation/index.md`:
- Around line 6-11: The document jumps from h1 to h3 headings ("Key Features"
and "Getting Started"); change those h3 headings (the lines containing "### Key
Features" and "### Getting Started") to h2 (use "##") so heading levels
increment by one and comply with MD001 and accessibility/navigation best
practices.

@swagner-de @felix-kaestner I added here an initial section for the network automation topic and cross referenced the network-operator. Feel free to open up any followup PRs to extend this doc section here.

In `@docs/overview/index.md`:
- Line 27: Replace the bold label "**Bare Metal Management**" (and the other
bold label "**Network Automation**") with proper Markdown headings to satisfy
MD036; for example change "**Bare Metal Management**" to "### Bare Metal
Management" (and similarly "**Network Automation**" to "### Network Automation")
so they become structured headings rather than bold text.

In `@docs/overview/index.md`:
- Around line 87-89: The bullet "Day 2 Operations: Manage configurations,
updates, and compliance for network devices" is missing a terminal period;
update that list item so it ends with a period to match the surrounding bullets
(e.g., modify the "Day 2 Operations" line in the list to add a trailing "." so
all three bullets are punctuated consistently).
- Around line 9-10: The sentence describing "IronCore’s two layers" uses a
singular verb; update the sentence so the verb agrees with the plural subject
(e.g., change "belongs to the infrastructure management domain" to "belong to
the infrastructure management domain") and ensure the parallel clause for the
IaaS layer likewise uses "provide" as shown in the diff to keep tense/number
consistent.

10-10: Use “support for” (grammar tweak).

“with support of” is unidiomatic; “with support for” reads better.

✏️ Proposed tweak
-- **Kubernetes Support**: Run Kubernetes on bare metal servers with support of Cluster API and Gardener.
+- **Kubernetes Support**: Run Kubernetes on bare metal servers with support for Cluster API and Gardener.
