When a non-FIPS slim ISO is used to bootstrap a node and a FIPS provider image is flashed during cluster creation, there is no user-data/cloud-config step to inject grub_options.extra_cmdline. This adds fips=1 directly into /etc/cos/bootargs.cfg at build time when FIPS_ENABLED=true, following the same pattern used for cgroup v2 and selinux=0.
