Document read-only/writable-ephemeral/writable-persistent directories
We need to update the documentation with the paths of all the directories that mounted as persisted (this list).
There are directories that are:
- read only
- writable but ephemeral
- writable and persistent
users should be able to tell directory is which by reading our docs.
At least this page needs to be updated: https://kairos.io/docs/architecture/immutable/

@jimmykarily Not sure how soon we will address this, but might be worth copying the content of the discussion since it's ephemeral 🤣
Well the essence of it is:
However we noticed that /var/lib is writable and persistent. i.e. new files and their changes persist after reboot.
Is this a mistake in the docs or a bug in Kairos or what?
We just need to document which paths are writable and persisted and which not.
