Claude ca750f5432 Document Ring vs Page and auto-answer kiosks, in the dashboard itself
The user asked for the security webpage to actually explain how to set
these up, not just this conversation. Adds a "How this works" disclosure
to the Ring Groups card (matching the existing help-block pattern already
used on Extensions and Personal numbers) covering:

- Ring vs Page's actual difference (first-answer-wins hunt group vs
  Asterisk signaling auto-answer via SIP headers).
- Mixing an auto-answering device with normally-ringing phones needs no
  new group type or per-member setting -- auto-answer lives in the
  device's own SIP client config, so a plain Ring group already dials
  everyone at once and an auto-answer-configured device just picks up
  faster than a human can.

New docs/kiosk-paging-setup.md walks through the concrete path for a
dedicated always-on auto-answer device: Easy Asterisk's own baresip-based
"kiosk" client, installed on a separate small Linux machine (not the
Asterisk server's Docker container -- the vendor script explicitly skips
baresip install when it detects Docker locally). Also notes plainly that
a browser/WebRTC auto-answer option doesn't exist on this server today
(no WSS transport configured) and would be new infrastructure work, not
a quick addition.
