James O. D. Hunt 3124131816 docs: Add RHEL and SLES install warning
Unfortunately, at present we have no way of testing Kata packages for
Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) or SUSE Linux Enterprise (SLES).

Add warnings to the RHEL and SLES install guides explaining this and
advising users to exercise caution. Hopefully, we will be able to drop
this warning soon (either when we have the ability to test on RHEL/SLES
or when Kata packages are available in RHEL/SLES).

Fixes #396.

    $ source /etc/os-release
    $ ARCH=$(arch)
    $ sudo -E yum-config-manager --add-repo "http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/katacontainers:/releases:/${ARCH}:/master/RHEL_${VERSION_ID}/home:katacontainers:releases:${ARCH}:master.repo"
    $ sudo -E yum -y install kata-runtime kata-proxy kata-shim
