This PR adds a disclaimer to the object stores documentation clarifying that CloudNativePG does not independently test all authentication methods supported by barman-cloud. CloudNativePG's responsibility is limited to passing the provided credentials to barman-cloud, which then handles authentication according to its own implementation.

This documentation change was decided by the maintainers as part of the discussion around Azure Default Credentials support (#9468).

This disclaimer clarifies that CloudNativePG doesn't independently test all
possible barman-cloud authentication methods. CloudNativePG's responsibility is
limited to passing provided credentials to barman-cloud, which then handles
authentication according to its own implementation.
