Pull request overview

This PR adds documentation for using cert-manager to provision and rotate Kong Mesh control plane TLS certificates on Kubernetes, including a reusable cert-manager installation prerequisite.

Changes:

  • Added a new prerequisite include for installing cert-manager via Helm.
  • Added a new Mesh how-to that creates cert-manager Issuer/Certificate resources for the control plane and configures the Helm install to use the generated Secret.
  • Added validation steps to confirm the control plane is running and the certificate is issued.
