This PR documents BOS hardware and install constraints in docs/hardware.md: x86-64 compatibility, T2 Mac requirements, the lack of a supported Windows dual-boot setup, and the default zram-only swap configuration.

Verified with git diff --check.

This covers the BOS repository documentation portion of BOS-49. The separate site update is not included because its local checkout has no Forgejo remote and no mapped site repository is available. BOS-49 remains open for that site change.

Content review passes for the scoped docs/hardware.md change. Acceptance criteria map to: 1. x86-64 image and Apple Silicon boot limitation, lines 29-32; 2. T2 external boot and patched keyboard/trackpad kernel requirements, lines 29-32; 3. no supported Windows dual-boot and whole-disk install, lines 34-36; 4. compressed zram swap only by default and no disk-backed hibernation swap, lines 38-40. These statements match the current BOS README and installer description. No tests are applicable to this documentation-only diff.

The PR is mergeable, but Forgejo reports no CI status for its head. The local checkout has unrelated dirty BOS-26 work and fetch is blocked by SSH config permissions, so I did not use it to run git diff --check. BOS is release-sensitive, so I am leaving the merge to the user. The site portion remains outside this PR; BOS-49 stays in TODO for that work.
