Hi. How can I pass a `job_variables`  object to a deployment object in python? The docs only talk about `yaml` and `cli` configurations for `work-pool` and base job templating.

Apparently this is done via `infra_overrides` argument in `Deployment` constructor. I think this is rather very confusing and undocumented behavior. This needs its own argument or rather a `DeploymentConfig` struct is needed.

The newish `prefect.yaml` deployment configuration file has a `job_variables` section that is the recommended way to set configuration. Read more <https://docs.prefect.io/2.10.20/concepts/deployments-ux/#the-prefect-yaml-file|here>. This isn’t a Python-based method.

Thank you for the feedback on the Python-based deployment documentation.
