README: clarify that neon_local is a dev/test tool (#10512)
## Problem From time to time, folks discover our `control_plane/` folder and make the (reasonable) mistake of thinking it's a tool for running full-sized Neon systems, whereas in reality it is a tool for dev/test. ## Summary of changes - Change control_plane's readme title to "Local Development Control Plane (`neon_local`)` - Change "Running local installation" to "Running a local development environment" in the main readme
