README: clarify that neon_local is a dev/test tool (#10512)

Browse Source 
## 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

This crate contains tools to start a Neon development environment locally. This utility can be used with the `cargo neon` command.
This crate contains tools to start a Neon development environment locally. This utility can be used with the `cargo neon` command. This is a convenience to invoke
the `neon_local` binary.
**Note**: this is a dev/test tool -- a minimal control plane suitable for testing
code changes locally, but not suitable for running production systems.
