Description

Red Hat ended maintenance-support for 7.X in May of 2024. Similarly, EL7 remediation-content was removed from the ash-linux-formula contents in July of 2025.

Need to remove references to EL7 from the watchmaker documentation to ensure people don't continue to assume its availability in watchmaker.
