Jay Pipes cbbaf04e72 use glossary defs in overview/components.md (#14721)
This patch promotes re-use of the existing kube-proxy glossary
definition by referencing it from overview/components.md. Similarly, we
move the definition of Container Runtime into a new glossary definition
so that other pages may refer to it.

`kube-proxy` is a network proxy that runs on each node in the cluster.
It enables the Kubernetes service abstraction by maintaining network rules on
the host and performing connection forwarding.
<!--more-->
`kube-proxy` is responsible for request forwarding. `kube-proxy` allows TCP and UDP stream forwarding or round robin TCP and UDP forwarding across a set of backend functions.
