Closes Ondra's "define it clearly" from the migration thread. The doc already framed migration and rehydration as the same intent-replay process; this adds the one-line three-way pin so Ryan's "rebuild" and your "migration" stop reading as a contradiction:

Rehydration is the operation (replay stored intent) · rebuild is the mechanism (native re-realization — Ryan's word) · migration is the effect the user sees. Same act, different layers.

Plus the explicit reconciliation that a rebuild-from-intent means there is no NSX→OVN conversion to fail — NSX was never carried across, only the requirement behind it (isolation: private), which OCPVirt satisfies natively with OVN.

Docs-only, in the existing "Migration and rehydration are the same process" section.

Ondra's thread: "Ryan says rehydrate isn't migration, you say it is — it can't
be both, define it clearly." The doc already framed both as intent-replay; this
adds the one-line three-way pin that removes the last ambiguity: rehydration =
the operation, rebuild = the mechanism (Ryan's word), migration = the effect.
Same act, different layers — never in tension. Plus the explicit note that a
rebuild-from-intent means there is no NSX->OVN conversion to fail (only the
requirement is carried across).
