Rename the book reward bucket from Cloud to Book & Library in the guide and form pack

The book and library tiers ($19 Early Bird eBook, $25 eBook plus updates,
$47 eBook plus 12 months of AiBook.fun, $55 signed paperback, $85 Collector's
Bundle) were grouped under "Cloud". WeOwn Cloud is a separate product, so the
bucket is now "Book & Library" everywhere. Sentences that called Cloud the
do-it-yourself path now describe the Book & Library tiers plainly. Prices,
dates and other content are unchanged. The .docx is regenerated from the
fixed Markdown with v2/build_docx.py (same page map, 36 pages).

### How the rewards are organized
On 23 September the owner approved three reward buckets, all as live tiers: the **Retreat** (the Burned Out Advisor Retreat), the **Academy** (AiCoach + AOP.biz BootCamp seats), and **Cloud** (do-it-yourself Responsible Agentic AI: the book and the online library).

The form pack has nine tiers; Kickstarter's handbook suggests five or fewer for a first project. We recommend six plus add-ons, keeping all three buckets visible:

- Tier 1: Early Bird eBook, $19, first 200 backers only
