Missing Docs: pages:deploy job and stage

Problem to solve

After an issue flared up in our pipeline, and discussed in slack, we realized that there is no documentation describing the pages:deploy job and deploy stage, which are automatically generated by Pages. This needs to be added.

As noted in the chat:

To be clear, I'm not sure where the pages:deploy job and deploy stage are coming from,
but I'm hoping that properly excluding the pages job will pull out the pages:deploy job as well.

pages:deploy is a “magic” job that runs when a pages job exists. I notice this isn’t documented at all!

And yeah, I checked the documentation for this, assuming it was something
automatically done for pages, even grep'ed through the docs because it "must"
be there, but didn't find anything at all!

No, I grep’ed the whole project, there’s one occurrence in the changelog,
one in a spec, and one in the actual service that create this job.
