Document the kernel_modules_images feature: building modules volumes, TOML and Helm chart configuration, agent behavior, and security considerations for both confidential and non-confidential deployments. Prominently warns that custom modules will not work with official Kata kernel releases because the KBUILD_SIGN_PIN used to sign modules is not public, requiring users to rebuild the kernel with their own signing key.
