Conversation
Wires "Try the Demo!" on the Workloads page's TryDemoWorkloadCard to actually deploy a running demo workload (Network + Workload + NetworkService + HTTPProxy) via a confirm dialog, with per-deploy randomized resource names and an app.kubernetes.io/managed-by label so runs never collide and stay identifiable for cleanup. Also adds a project-home card and a top-header hint (behind a new portal.header/project extension) that deep-link into the same dialog via ?tryDemo=1, both gated to projects with an Active Compute entitlement.
The unikernel demo image pulls anonymously, so the demo no longer depends on a dockerhub-pull secret existing in the project.

Summary
Adds a one-click demo deploy to the Workloads page: a new card offers to deploy a real, running workload, behind a confirm dialog that explains what will happen. The dialog then tracks the deploy through creation and readiness, letting the user leave and come back at any point rather than blocking on a spinner. Each deploy gets its own randomized name so repeat runs, or a workload deleted outside the portal, never collide with a prior one, and every object it creates carries a label identifying it as demo-origin for cleanup.
A project-home card and a small top-header hint point entitled projects at the same flow from elsewhere in the portal, using a new host extension point (companion PR: datum-cloud/cloud-portal#1560).
