k8s: Announcing Changed Block Tracking API support (alpha)

Kubernetes announces alpha support for a Changed Block Tracking API that lets CSI drivers report allocated and changed blocks between snapshots to enable faster, incremental backups for block volumes. The feature requires a SnapshotMetadataService CRD, an external-snapshot-metadata sidecar, and CSI SnapshotMetadata gRPC RPCs (GetMetadataAllocated and GetMetadataDelta) with streaming responses.
