Velero: Adjust docs to indicate that Ark can run on-prem and in the cloud

Right now it sounds like the only real production target for Ark is a Kubernetes cluster running on one of the cloud providers. Let's adjust the documentation so it's clearer that it can run on premises as well.

Any details on using Ark on bare-metal. As it stands there is no documentation on installing Ark on a bare metal k8s cluster. If someone has a link to documentation on Ark installation on bare-metal could you post the link please.

We are planning on updating the documentation this week to make it clearer how to run on prem.

Any word on this?

Does a deployment file exist for just the Ark server on bare metal Kubernetes?

Although the docs were updated in #880, I still cannot find any setup instructions for bare-metal. There are sections on how to setup for many of the cloud providers (eg. Run Ark on AWS), but I did not find a section for bare-metal/on-premise (eg. Run Ark on bare-metal/on-premise).

@jonaskello @RiaanLab please follow the Minio example for an on-prem/bare-metal deployment. If you also want to snapshot PV contents, our restic integration would be a good first step.

@ncdc Could you give me the link about velero installation on bare-metal k8s cluster.

@fei922 The minio docs at https://velero.io/docs/v1.1.0/get-started/ are a good starting point.

@nrb Thank you very much.
