Rewrite the WhatsApp interface setup to target the WhatsApp Cloud API: remove the extra dependency note, clarify prerequisites (Business Portfolio, ngrok/cloudflared), and reorganize steps. Added explicit guidance for creating a Meta Business Account and app, obtaining Phone Number ID, Access Token and App Secret, and setting environment variables (including OPENAI_API_KEY). Updated server/tunnel instructions, webhook configuration, and subscription steps; added registration curl calls to activate test numbers. Introduced Signature Validation, Production Access, and a Troubleshooting table, and adjusted the development warning to include cloudflared.
Replace the previous brief instructions with step-by-step guidance for production setup via Basic setup > Step 2. Production setup. Adds instructions to register and verify business numbers, generate a permanent (non-expiring) token from the "Generate permanent token" task, and set WHATSAPP_ACCESS_TOKEN and WHATSAPP_PHONE_NUMBER_ID. Includes notes on adding payment for business-initiated messages, warns not to confuse the permanent token generation task with the sidebar "Step 1. Try it out" (temporary token), and calls out that the older Business Settings > System Users token flow is no longer valid for WhatsApp.

can we avoid mentioning WhatsApp Cloud API credentials in description?

<Note>
Install the WhatsApp dependencies: `uv pip install 'agno[whatsapp]'`
</Note>
The WhatsApp interface uses the WhatsApp Cloud API. The `httpx` dependency it needs ships with Agno, so no extra install is required.
