Configuration to provision content libraries:

yaml
apiVersion: v1alpha1
kind: ContentLibraryConfig
name: my-vm-images-1 # should be a safe name, let's do something like `^[A-z0-9](A-z0-9.-+)$`
backing:
  volume: <volumeID>

Expose content libraries as a resource, e.g. ContentLibraryStatus.

Provide a new set of APIs to manage content library contents:

List() # list files within the library
Upload() # upload an image
Delete() # delete an image

RBAC: new role os:content-library:reader, os:content-library:writer + os:operator, os:admin

We should have talosctl hv content-library list|upload|delete <library_id> [<filename>]

We need to have an integration test: API/CLI, we need a separate CI pipeline provisioning Talos cluster of only controlplanes, with --skip-etcd-k8s flag, with some Volumes defined, and a default ContentLibrary provisioned.
