Make the OPT recomendation clearer
AFAIK OTP releases are the recomended way of installing, but * People seem unaware of that and use from source installations because they use the guide with the name of their distro * People don't know what OTP releases are or what it means I added a warning on all installation-from-source guides and added the same explanation on the two OTP pages (the miigration to OTP and installing OTP) Backport of: https://git.pleroma.social/pleroma/pleroma/-/merge_requests/3485

## Installation
This guide will assume you are on Debian 11 (“bullseye”) or later. This guide should also work with Ubuntu 18.04 (“Bionic Beaver”) and later. It also assumes that you have administrative rights, either as root or a user with [sudo permissions](https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-add-delete-and-grant-sudo-privileges-to-users-on-a-debian-vps). If you want to run this guide with root, ignore the `sudo` at the beginning of the lines, unless it calls a user like `sudo -Hu pleroma`; in this case, use `su <username> -s $SHELL -c 'command'` instead.
