[RFE] Documentation around available sysext must be clearer
Current situation
Flatcar provides three types of systemd-sysext images:
- non-official: from the Flatcar sysext-bakery releases
- official: like ZFS, Podman or Python (one needs to write the extension name in
/etc/flatcar/enabled-sysext.conf) - built-in: like Docker, Containerd, OEM partition
But the difference is not very clear from a user point of view.
Impact
It's confusing to know which sysext is available / built-in / etc. For example there is a Docker image from the bakery but there is also a Docker built-in sysext image. (read: https://github.com/flatcar/Flatcar/issues/1470 or https://github.com/flatcar/Flatcar/issues/1481)
