The weekly Generate Docs PDF workflow (.github/workflows/pdf.yml) built its output from https://contribute-cncf-io.netlify.app, the CNCF Contributors site, not this repo's End User Community site. It was added when this repository was contribute.cncf.io and was never updated after the repo was repurposed. The workflow was also broken independently: it crashes on Node 22 (import assertions removed), its upload step targets a release tag (0.1) that does not exist, and it runs an unpinned docusaurus-prince-pdf via npx. No release or page in this repo links to the generated PDF, so remove the workflow instead of fixing it piecemeal. Fixes #271 Fixes #123 Fixes #188 Fixes #258 Signed-off-by: mrbobbytables <mrbobbytables@users.noreply.github.com>

Summary
Removes
.github/workflows/pdf.yml(weekly "Generate Docs PDF" job).The workflow built its PDF from
https://contribute-cncf-io.netlify.app(the CNCF Contributors site) and named its outputs
contribute.pdf/contribute-cncf-io. It was added in PR #32 back when this repo wascontribute.cncf.io, and was never updated after the repo was repurposed
as the End User Community site (
endusers.cncf.io).Rather than repoint it at this site, the workflow is removed because it
is also broken on three independent fronts:

PDF or its release asset, so there is no user-facing regression from
removing it.
