Alex Lyn fb2af538ee docs: Add how-to guide for using fsmerged EROFS rootfs with Kata
Document the end-to-end workflow for using the containerd EROFS
snapshotter with Kata Containers runtime-rs, covering containerd
configuration, Kata QEMU settings, and pod deployment examples
via crictl/ctr/Kubernetes.

Include prerequisites (containerd >= 2.2, runtime-rs main branch),
QEMU VMDK format verification command, architecture diagram,
VMDK descriptor format reference, and troubleshooting guide.

Note that Cloud Hypervisor, Firecracker, and Dragonball do not
support VMDK block devices and are currently unsupported for
fsmerged EROFS rootfs.
