Alex Lyn 119a145923 docs: Upgrade architecture documentation from 3.0 to 4.0
Replace Kata 3.0 architecture docs with Kata 4.0 (Rust Runtime)
documentation.

Key changes:
- Remove deprecated architecture 3.0 documentation
- Add comprehensive Kata 4.0 architecture guide covering:
  - Unified single-binary architecture
  - Built-in Dragonball VMM integration
  - Async I/O model with Tokio
  - Layered architecture design
  - Modular resource manager
  - Extensible framework for multiple container types

The new documentation reflects the production-ready Rust runtime
with improved performance and reduced resource consumption.
