fix(walkthroughs): Correct deployment time messaging for LocalGov Drupal
- Fix incorrect "15 minutes" to "35 to 40 minutes" in step-1.njk - Remove misleading "No deployment needed" from walkthrough landing - Add explanation of why deployment takes longer (Aurora Serverless) - Add "While you wait" guidance with Events tab suggestion - Update timeEstimate in scenarios.yaml from 15 to 40 minutes
