The snap installation section was removed from the v1.3 docs. Now that the snap release workflow is active and publishing to the Snap Store, restore the installation instructions with the required --classic flag. ORAS uses classic confinement to access files outside the snap sandbox, so users need to pass --classic when installing. Fixes oras-project/oras#1965 Signed-off-by: Terry Howe <terrylhowe@gmail.com>

Summary

versioned_docs/version-1.3/installation.mdxwithsnap install oras --classic--classicis required because ORAS uses classic confinement to access files outside the snap sandboxWhy
--classicis requiredORAS is a CLI tool that reads and writes files at arbitrary paths provided by the user. Strict snap confinement would prevent this, so classic confinement is intentional and the
--classicflag is unavoidable.Fixes oras-project/oras#1965
