docs(authentication): add disclaimer about authentication methods testing

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

:::note Authentication Methods
The Barman Cloud Plugin does not independently test all authentication methods
supported by `barman-cloud`. The plugin's responsibility is limited to passing
the provided credentials to `barman-cloud`, which then handles authentication
according to its own implementation. Users should refer to the
[Barman Cloud documentation](https://docs.pgbarman.org/release/latest/) to
verify that their chosen authentication method is supported and properly
configured.
