docs(deploy): bump dd count 2200 → 2800 for 25.11 image size

Browse source 
The 24.05-era image was ~6 GB actual; the README's count=2200 (8.8 GB)
gave a small margin. The 25.11 image is 7.3 GB actual (linux-firmware-
zstd grew, plus the version churn) — count=2200 would now truncate.

Bump to count=2800 (~11.2 GB) and note that future bumps may need
another increase — image size is the right thing to check via
\`ls -lh result/\`.
