docs: update presentation materials with first-class parameters feature

Update presentation content to highlight the recent UX improvements from
v0.6.6 (PRs #448 and #449).

Changes to PRESENTATION_OUTLINE.md:
- Add new Section 5: Recent UX Improvements (3 min)
- Showcase before/after examples of first-class parameters
- Highlight 70% reduction in typing and elimination of JSON syntax errors
- Add Q&A entry explaining the rationale for first-class parameters
- Update section numbering (5→6, 6→7, etc.)
- Update metrics: 225 comprehensive CLI tests (+217% coverage)
- Update version references: v0.6.5 → v0.6.6
- Update Key Takeaways with clean UX point

Changes to DEMO.md:
- Add Section 11: First-Class Parameters demonstration
- Show before/after examples for database creation
- Include Cloud and Enterprise examples
- Add note to highlight this feature during demo

Changes to 03-demo-workflow.sh:
- Add Feature 8: First-Class Parameters with live demonstration
- Include dry-run example showing the new interface
- Update Feature numbering (8→9 for Library Architecture)
- Update Key Takeaways to include first-class parameters
- Add test count (225 tests) to production-ready point

These updates ensure the presentation showcases the significant UX
improvements that make redisctl more accessible to the solution architect
group while maintaining technical accuracy about recent development work.

+# OLD WAY - JSON required (easy to mess up!)
+redisctl enterprise database create \
+  --data '{"name":"demo","memory_size":1073741824,"replication":true}'
+
+# NEW WAY - clean CLI flags

+redisctl cloud subscription create \
+  --name prod-subscription \
+  --payment-method marketplace \
+  --memory-storage ram-and-flash \
+  --data @subscription.json  # For complex nested config
+```
+
+**Benefits:**
+- No JSON syntax errors
+- Clear parameter names
+- Built-in validation
+- Tab completion works!
+- Still supports `--data` for advanced configs
+
+---
+
 ## Notes
 - Commands ready to copy/paste
 - Fill in real IDs during demo
 - Keep it moving - don't wait for long operations
 - Docker Compose shows complete working examples with all commands
+- Highlight the new first-class parameters - it's a major UX win!

+### First-Class Parameters (NEW in v0.6.6)
+
+**The Problem with JSON strings:**
+- Easy to make syntax errors (missing quotes, commas, braces)
+- No tab completion
+- Hard to remember exact field names
+- Verbose for simple operations
+
+**Before: Complex JSON Required**
+
+```bash
+# Cloud database - the old way
+redisctl cloud database create --subscription 123 \
+  --data '{"name":"mydb","memoryLimitInGb":1,"protocol":"redis","replication":true,"dataPersistence":"aof","dataEvictionPolicy":"volatile-lru"}'
+
+# Enterprise database - the old way  
+redisctl enterprise database create \
+  --data '{"name":"prod-db","memory_size":2147483648,"replication":true,"persistence":"aof","eviction_policy":"volatile-lru"}'
+```
+
+**After: Clean CLI Parameters**
+
+```bash
+# Cloud database - the new way (70% less typing!)
+redisctl cloud database create --subscription 123 \
+  --name mydb --memory 1 --replication \
+  --data-persistence aof --eviction-policy volatile-lru
+
+# Enterprise database - the new way
+redisctl enterprise database create \
+  --name prod-db --memory 2147483648 --replication \
+  --persistence aof --eviction-policy volatile-lru
+
+# Cloud subscription with smart defaults
+redisctl cloud subscription create \
+  --name prod-subscription \
+  --payment-method marketplace \
+  --memory-storage ram-and-flash \
+  --data @subscription.json  # Still supports complex nested config
+```
+
+**Key Improvements:**
+- ✅ **70% less typing** for common operations
+- ✅ **No JSON syntax errors** - CLI validates parameters
+- ✅ **Tab completion** for parameter names
+- ✅ **Clear error messages** - "unknown flag --nmae" vs silent JSON typo
+- ✅ **Smart defaults** - protocol=redis, eviction-policy=volatile-lru
+- ✅ **Backwards compatible** - `--data` still works for advanced configs
+- ✅ **Parameter override** - Mix `--data` with flags for flexibility
+
+**Live Demo:**
+```bash
+# Show help with all new parameters
+redisctl enterprise database create --help
+
+# Create a simple database - no JSON needed!
+redisctl enterprise database create \
+  --name demo-db \
+  --memory 1073741824 \
+  --replication \
+  --dry-run
+
+# Compare to the old way
+echo '{"name":"demo-db","memory_size":1073741824,"replication":true}' | \
+  redisctl enterprise database create --data @- --dry-run
+```
