Pull request overview
Adds documentation and support-matrix data for Kong Gateway “distroless” Docker images, and updates install/support UI includes to surface the new option and avoid showing package artifacts for Docker-only distributions.
Changes:
- Add a new Gateway install how-to for running the distroless image in DB-less mode.
- Update the Gateway install include to link to the distroless how-to (both markdown and HTML render paths).
- Extend the Gateway OS/support data and table rendering to include a Distroless entry and suppress package rows when packages aren’t available.
