NetBox version

v3.3.7

Python version

3.8

Steps to Reproduce

Wrong command in the documentation

Expected Behavior

wget command should work as expected

Observed Behavior

I noticed that the wget command used to download the netbox release, documented in Upgrading Netbox documentation is wrong, it should be https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox/archive/refs/tags/vX.Y.Z.tar.gz instead of https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox/archive/vX.Y.Z.tar.gz, e.g. v3.3.7 can be downloaded at https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox/archive/refs/tags/v3.3.7.tar.gz.
