Subject: [PATCH] Update kubernetes-config.rst with operator guidance for
 Windows nodes

When deploying the collector in a K8s cluster with both Linux and Windows nodes, where the operator is enabled, we need to add a node selector to ensure that the operator is deployed to a Linux node, as it will not work if deployed to a Windows node.
