Description

Add a new "Candidacy" section to the disruption concept docs covering:
the general conditions a node must meet to be considered a disruption
candidate, the per-method overlays (consolidation, drift, expiration,
interruption, node auto repair, manual), the surprising behavior where
consolidation considers fully packed nodes (not just underutilized
ones) once their Consolidatable condition is true, and the
terminationGracePeriod override that bypasses pod-level
do-not-disrupt and PDB checks for drift candidacy.

Closes kubernetes-sigs/karpenter#1241
