@alasdairwilson This seems to require a review. Happy to do it, but it may take a few days.

Pull request overview

Adds a new Sphinx documentation page describing the end-to-end process for publishing a new project to the deployed ISARIC VERTEX instance, and updates existing docs to clarify how project_id, initial visibility, and ownership relate to the access database and account management flow.

Changes:

• Added a new “Adding a project to VERTEX” page documenting the VERTEX-projects → server sync → ingestion → access management pipeline.
• Clarified project_id, is_public, and project_owner semantics in the app configuration documentation and linked to the new page.
• Included the new page in the documentation toctree.
