Elias Carter a0b21fd8f0 doc: improve documentation around object store certificates
The documentaiton around object store certificates does not specify how
to deal with internally issued certs being used on the RGW. From my
testing it is possible to get the rook operator to validate the RGW
certs if the entire certificate chain is put into the `cert` field of
the `sslCertificateRef` secret.

Additionally, the docs are linking to a broken civetweb link but rook is
now using the beast frontend, so I fixed that link to point towards the
beast frontend documentation instead.

There was also some confusion around the `caBundleRef` and how that is
used so I made the docs more explicit that the `caBundleRef` is used by
the RGW to connect to external services such as LGW and mulitsite RGW.

Rook

Rook is an open source cloud-native storage orchestrator, providing the platform, framework, and support for Ceph storage to natively integrate with cloud-native environments.

Ceph is a distributed storage system that provides file, block and object storage and is deployed in large scale production clusters.

Rook automates deployment and management of Ceph to provide self-managing, self-scaling, and self-healing storage services. The Rook operator does this by building on Kubernetes resources to deploy, configure, provision, scale, upgrade, and monitor Ceph.

The Ceph operator was declared stable in December 2018 in the Rook v0.9 release, providing a production storage platform for many years. Rook is hosted by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) as a graduated level project.

Quick Start Guide

Starting Ceph in your cluster is as simple as a few kubectl commands. See our Quickstart guide to get started with the Ceph operator!

Designs

Ceph is a highly scalable distributed storage solution for block storage, object storage, and shared filesystems with years of production deployments. See the Ceph overview.

For detailed design documentation, see also the design docs.
