Adds a Kubernetes-ZVMA companion to the existing Windows-ZVM recipe:
- scripts/examples/zerto-zvma-send.ps1 - Zerto-side sender for both
pre and post phases, packages the Zerto* env vars into a structured
JSON body and POSTs to a {phase}-templated webhook URL.
- scripts/examples/zerto-receiver-notify.ps1 - server-side receiver
that posts a Slack/Teams notification, with phase-aware formatting
and ZertoForce highlighted on pre.
- scripts/examples/zerto-receiver-vm-healthcheck.ps1 - server-side
receiver that pings + port-probes each VM in VmDisplayNames after
failover and writes a per-run JSON report.
- scripts/examples/send-env-vars.ps1 + save-env-vars.ps1 - generic
env-dump client/receiver pair (the diagnostic that surfaced what
the ZVMA scripts-service container exposes).
- docs/recipes/zerto-zvma-pre-post.md - full walkthrough mirroring
the existing Windows-ZVM recipe's structure.
- README.md and docs/README.md - link the new recipe and examples.

Webhook Server documentation
Webhook Server is a Windows service that runs a script (PowerShell, cmd, or any executable) when an HTTP request hits a URL you choose. It's designed for sysadmins who want to wire a tool like Zerto pre/post scripts, GitHub Actions, a monitoring system, or a backup tool into a Windows-side automation step — without writing a custom listener every time.

Recipes (cookbook style)
- Zerto failover post-script → DNS + service checks ← canonical use case (Windows ZVM)
- Zerto ZVMA (Kubernetes) pre/post → notify + VM health check — same pattern for the in-cluster scripts-service
- GitHub-style HMAC-signed webhook

The flagship Zerto recipe ships with a ready-to-use Zerto-side post-script at scripts/examples/zerto-post-failover.ps1. The ZVMA recipe ships with zerto-zvma-send.ps1 (sender) plus zerto-receiver-notify.ps1 and zerto-receiver-vm-healthcheck.ps1 (receivers).
