[doc] the compute node image doc does not take releases into account
Description
The page at https://doc.arvados.org/install/crunch2-cloud/install-compute-node.html is source based, and it does not take our releases into account. This means that by default, you get the bleeding edge/dev packages in your freshly baked compute image, which is not what you want.
Solution: either fix it by adding an explicit git checkout command (this would need to be autogenerated with the correct git branch, use an existing/new variable in the doc build scripts), or package the build script as a proper OS package, versioned like everything else.

The current version at least tells you to get the right release branch, and even if you get main the Ansible playbook gets you the last released version by default, not development packages (that's a separate configuration you have to opt into).
