Add per-model OptiPlex kickstart variants from live Cobbler

The seed almalinux9 kickstart reconstructed the Cobbler contract from memory
and guessed storage: it installed to sda with autopart and keyboard us. The
real Cobbler server (cobbler.main.unkin.net) provisions the OptiPlex fleet from
three model-specific profiles (almalinux9-dell_3050 / _3060 / _7080) that all
install to NVMe with an explicit LVM layout and differ in disk selection, EFI
handling and whether the VG grows. This folds that real content in, keeping one
shared template driven by per-model catalog data.

Changes:
- Make almalinux9.ks.tmpl storage model-aware via .DistroVars.storage_mode:
  fixed-nvme (static nvme0n1, BIOS/MBR), auto-nvme (%pre picks the internal
  NVMe, UEFI-aware, --boot-drive), with vg_grow to grow the PV; generic/VM
  hosts keep the autopart-on-sda path.
- Port the explicit LVM layout (/boot, root, swap, /home, /var/log) and the
  %pre NVMe picker + rootvg wipe from the real Cobbler dell templates.
- Add catalog entries optiplex-3050 (fixed-nvme), optiplex-3060 (auto-nvme) and
  optiplex-7080 (auto-nvme + vg_grow), selected by a device's provision_template
  custom field set to the OptiPlex device_type slug.
- Correct keyboard us -> au and add the kdump addon + kexec-tools/bind-utils to
  match the Cobbler profiles.
- Document the per-model variants and selection in catalog/README.md.

+## Per-model variants (Dell OptiPlex)
+
+Different OptiPlex models need slightly different storage handling, so each is
+its own catalog entry selecting the shared `almalinux9` kickstart with a
+model-specific `storage_mode` var:
+
+| Entry | `storage_mode` | Disk selection | Firmware | LVM PV |
+|-------|----------------|----------------|----------|--------|
+| `optiplex-3050` | `fixed-nvme` | static `nvme0n1` | legacy BIOS/MBR | fixed ~31G |
+| `optiplex-3060` | `auto-nvme` | `%pre` picks first NVMe <512G | UEFI-aware (EFI part if booted UEFI) | fixed ~31G |
+| `optiplex-7080` | `auto-nvme` + `vg_grow: "true"` | `%pre` picks first NVMe <512G | UEFI-aware | grows to fill disk |
+
+The kickstart (`kickstart/almalinux9.ks.tmpl`) reads `.DistroVars.storage_mode`
+/ `.DistroVars.vg_grow` and renders the matching storage stanza; any entry
+without those vars (e.g. plain `almalinux9`, `fedora`) gets the generic
+autopart-on-`sda` path.
+
+**Model selection (NetBox-driven, no code change):** the entry `name` is the
+OptiPlex **device_type slug**. Set the device's `provision_template` custom
+field to that slug (`optiplex-3050` / `-3060` / `-7080`) and bootapi's catalog
+`Select` picks the matching entry (override precedence beats platform/family).
+The `match.platforms` slug on each entry is the device_type slug too — not a
+real NetBox platform slug — so these entries are *only* reachable via the
+override and never hijack a plain `almalinux9` host. To add another model, copy
+one of these files, change the `name`/slug and `storage_mode`.
