Network resilience (4/4): registry resilience — private/mirror registry + air-gapped image bundle #585

Description

@shujaatTracebloc

Child 4/4 of #578 (network resilience).

Problem

Some sites hard-block the container registries (Docker Hub / GHCR). The images then aren't reachable directly at all.

What to build

  • Support a private/mirror registry the site CAN reach (the chart already allows images.*.repository + a pull secret) — wire it end-to-end + document.
  • Support an air-gapped image bundle (pre-loaded into the cluster) for fully locked-down sites.
  • The installer detects a registry block and switches to / guides to the mirror or offline mode — cleanly, never a crash.

Honest limit (state it in the epic)

A site that blocks the registries and offers no reachable mirror and won't accept an offline bundle cannot be served — the software isn't reachable by definition. Everything short of that is handleable.
