linkerd/client image cannot be found on cr.l5d.io (ghcr.io)

What is the issue?

following along the guide for adding non-kubernetes workloads to your mesh, https://linkerd.io/2.15/tasks/adding-non-kubernetes-workloads/, one step includes pulling an image from ghcr.io:

kubectl apply -f - <<EOF
apiVersion: v1
kind: ServiceAccount
metadata:
  name: client
  namespace: mixed-env
---
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  name: client
  namespace: mixed-env
  annotations:
    linkerd.io/inject: enabled
spec:
  volumes:
  - name: shared-data
    emptyDir: {}
  containers:
  - name: client
    image: cr.l5d.io/linkerd/client:current
    command:
      - "sh"
      - "-c"
      - >
        while true; do
          sleep 3600;
        done        
  serviceAccountName: client
EOF

The image cr.l5d.io/linkerd/client:current cannot be found. resulting in client POD failure

How can it be reproduced?

1. Login to github with personal access token (PAT)
2. docker pull cr.l5d.io/linkerd/client:current Error response from daemon: manifest unknown

Logs, error output, etc

For the record, I'm working on fixing the docs here – they shouldn't be referring to a client image in this way.
