Current evaluation

Maintainer-authored docs request remains open: extension reference pages lack coverage of resources and containers generated by framework extensions. The manage-extensions guide has an expanded-output example, but the pages remain incomplete.

Suggested action: keep open

Reason: Extension code treats containers and resources as fields supplied by framework extensions, while the current Flask reference page documents other contributed settings but not these fields. The manage-extensions example provides only partial coverage, and no resolving commit or evidence that the documentation target is obsolete is present, so this valid maintainer-scoped task should remain open despite its age.

Issue body

### What needs to get done Add what the `resources` and `containers` keys that extensions add to their reference pages. Possibly even add an example of the full output of `charmcraft expand-extensions` on the template file (probably default collapsed and at the end of the document)? ### Why it needs to get done The extensions reference pages currently contain a lot of information about what they add to `charmcraft.yaml`, but they don't contain these.
