Bootstrap Workflow

Bootstrap flow

The folder-structure doc still makes it a bit tricky to see the dependancies and workflow for the cluster. Ill attempt to clarify that a bit with a confusing speghetti flowchart.

* Steps require reconciliation of prior step

In the deployment subgraph, each step uses `dependsOn in the yaml to require the previous step fully reconciled before it proceeds.

In this way, there is a layering where the cluster will load the repositories, flux managment layer, variables, and finally orchestration to start installing apps in order.
