Add changelog entries for F5 WAF for NGINX 5.15 and 5.14.1, both released September 2nd, 2026.

5.15 adds support for Alpine 3.24 and NGINX Plus R37.1, and drops support for Debian 11. 5.14.1 is a patch release.

Update the supported operating systems table, the Docker install examples, and the Dockerfile includes to document Alpine 3.24 and remove Debian 11 (bullseye). Alpine examples continue to default to 3.22.

Bump the WAF version shortcodes to 5.15.0.
