Fabiano Fidêncio 7c74244d69 build: wire nvrc + nvidia-gpu base/extension into CI and packaging
Add the nvrc static-build target and make the NVIDIA rootfs targets
depend on it (the rootfs build consumes kata-static-nvrc.tar.zst), and
add the rootfs-image-nvidia-gpu-{base,extension} build targets to the
local-build Makefile and the nvgpu bundle.

Build nvrc and the base/extension rootfs images in the amd64/arm64 static
tarball workflows (nvrc is baked into the rootfs and pruned from the
release like the other guest components), and point the runtime-rs NVIDIA
shim components at the composable base + gpu extension (+ coco extension for
the confidential classes). The Go shim components keep the monolithic
nvidia-gpu / nvidia-gpu-confidential images.

Ship cryptsetup in the CoCo guest-components extension (and bundle
libnvat's non-glibc dependency closure next to the nvidia attester): the
chiseled base-nvidia image carries only veritysetup, so the coco-extension
manifest's usr/sbin PATH entry needs a cryptsetup to resolve for NVIDIA
confidential encrypted-storage.

Kata Containers packaging

Introduction

Kata Containers currently supports packages for many distributions. Tooling to aid in creating these packages are contained within this repository.

Build in a container

Kata build artifacts are available within a container image, created by a Dockerfile. Reference DaemonSets are provided in kata-deploy, which make installation of Kata Containers in a running Kubernetes Cluster very straightforward.

Build static binaries

See the static build documentation.

Build Kata Containers Kernel

See the kernel documentation.

Build QEMU

See the QEMU documentation.

Create a Kata Containers release

See the release documentation.

Packaging scripts

See the scripts documentation.
