What

Adds download/install links to the docs guide: one on the guide home, one in the tutorial's Before you start.

Why

Week 6 'empathy for the reader' exercise (read the docs as a stranger): both pages say you need MacDirStat installed, but neither links to where to get it. A reader who lands on /guide/ directly (search, shared link) hits a dead end at step zero. The landing page has the download button, so the fix is just linking it.

How

  • guide/index.md: 'Not installed yet?' paragraph pointing at the project page and the build-from-source path.
  • guide/tutorial/first-scan.md: install link in Before you start.

Test

mkdocs build --strict passes locally; links point at the existing landing page.

Stranger-read finding: both the guide home and the tutorial's 'Before you
start' told readers they need MacDirStat installed but never linked to
where to get it. A reader landing on /guide/ directly had no path to the
download. Link the project page from both places.
