Add a generic section on how to mount extra data into our images #779

Description

@soenkeliebau

We regularly get questions about how to add binaries or other files into our images at runtime.
There are a few options that we recommend and it differs per operator because not all of them support extra_volumes, but we never wrote this down in a structured fashion and picked a recommended option.

Lets add a section to the docs and spell out the main three or four options along with pros and cons and also mention what not to do.

Possible ways:

  • mount OCI artifact
  • copy to PV and mount that
  • init container to download and copy
  • gitsync

Not recommended:

  • stick binary data into a ConfigMap or Secret
