Move the restore option table out of the appsmithctl subcommand index into the guide it defers to, and drop the duplicated pod-restart block. Replace the Kubernetes command-line password example with a Secret-based procedure. kubectl exec arguments travel as query parameters in the request URI, so kube-apiserver audit logs would record the archive password in plaintext, and an encrypted archive's docker.env carries the instance encryption keys. Correct three points about the secrets themselves. The archive password is transient and must not be persisted; APPSMITH_ENCRYPTION_PASSWORD and APPSMITH_ENCRYPTION_SALT are durable and do belong in the instance's docker.env. Appsmith checks only that the latter two are present, not that they match the source instance. Document APPSMITH_BACKUP_ARCHIVE_PASSWORD in the environment variable reference, and record on the backup pages that appsmithctl backup writes an unencrypted archive when no terminal is attached, which is where the restore guide's unencrypted path comes from.

Description
Document unattended instance restores for CI/CD and disaster recovery, available from Appsmith v2.4.1. Add Docker and Kubernetes examples, exact filename selection, local/S3 behavior, encrypted and unencrypted archive secrets, failure handling, and version mismatch overrides. Update the
appsmithctlreference with supported restore options and a link to the guide.Behavior checked against appsmithorg/appsmith#42147 and appsmithorg/appsmith-ee#9714; appsmithorg/appsmith-ee#9716 records EE sync ancestry without further behavior changes.
