docs(derived): mark the page as draft so it can merge before the release

Remove both when the release carrying derived variables goes out.

mkdocs build passes; the banner and all four images render.

Derived variables are useful when users need to work with a value that is a function of the stored data - a banding, a concatenation, a calculation - without changing the table, the load process, or the ETL.
