Description
What would you like added?
In the legacy controller, it was possible to specify a volumeClaimTemplate to provision a pool of PVs to support caching docker images. As far as I can tell there is no such functionality in the new version. Is there a plan to support this in the future?
Why is this needed?
Caching docker images offers a potentially significant performance advantage.

Research direction
Start with the legacy custom-volumes documentation linked in the issue, especially the volumeClaimTemplate example for Docker image-layer caching. Then inspect the current controller's runner and PVC handling to determine where equivalent support would belong. Done means defining and implementing a supported way to provision reusable PVCs for this caching use case, with validation or documentation showing how it works.
