Fabiano Fidêncio de775d9c88 docs: promote composable VM images proposal to a design document
The proposal told us to move it under docs/design/ once it was accepted
and implemented.  The systemd base landed on main and the NVIDIA split
(nvidia base + gpu extension) is what this series wires up, so it's no
longer a proposal - promote it to docs/design/composable-vm-images.md,
flip the status accordingly and repoint the in-tree references (agent,
osbuilder and kata-deploy) at the new path.

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.
