Fabiano Fidêncio 2e7633674f kata-deploy: use k3s/rke2 base template
K3s docs (https://docs.k3s.io/advanced#configuring-containerd) say that the
right way to customize containerd is to extend the base template with
{{ template "base" . }} and append your own TOML blocks, rather than copying a
prerendered config.toml into the template file.

We were copying config.toml into config.toml.tmpl / config-v3.toml.tmpl, which
meant we were replacing the K3s defaults with a snapshot that gets stale as
soon as K3s is upgraded.

Now we create the template files with just the base directive and let our
regular set_toml_value code path append the Kata runtime configuration on top.

To make that work, the TOML utils learned to handle files that start with a
Go template line ({{ ... }}): strip it before parsing, put it back when writing.
This keeps the K3s/RKE2 path identical to every other runtime -- no special
append logic needed.
