docs: fix incorrect Ansible paths and standardize inventory references (#13246)

This commit updates documentation across several files to correct broken
file paths and ensure consistency in Ansible command examples

- Standardized inventory naming to `inventory.ini` for sample inventories.
- Fixed `group_vars` paths to reflect the actual directory structure
  (e.g., `group_vars/all/all.yml` instead of `group_vars/all.yml`).
- Corrected the `k8s-cluster.yml` filename in guides.
- Clarified the location for `kubectl_localhost` and `kubeconfig_localhost` settings.
- Replaced non-existent placeholders (like `inventory/single.cfg`) with
  valid repository paths.
- Fixed typos in directory names (e.g., `myclsuter` -> `mycluster`).

You can control how many nodes are upgraded at the same time by modifying the ansible variable named `serial`, as explained [here](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/playbook_guide/playbooks_strategies.html#setting-the-batch-size-with-serial). If you don't set this variable, it will upgrade the cluster nodes in batches of 20% of the available nodes. Setting `serial=1` would mean upgrade one node at a time.
