GRPA-3100: Convert kmod instructions from filetranspiler to Butane

The current RHCOS systemd can now enable instantiated services via
Ignition.

The embedded SSH key was apparently inherited from the instructions in
https://github.com/kmods-via-containers/kmods-via-containers#testing-it-out-on-an-ostree-based-host-provisioned-via-ignition
and shouldn't be needed on OCP.  Drop it.
