Public bug reported:

As a newcomer to cloud-init, the module documentation has been extremely
helpful in laying out the options I can utilize. However, I often have
to ask myself if i need to do something as a runcmd script rather than
utilize a module, since the documentation doesn't clarify what boot
stage (or stages as I've come to find out) a particular module is
executed in.

Proposal:

Right after the summary of each module in the documentation, add a "Boot
stages:" section.

I think this will also help reinforce the concept of the 5 boot stages
of cloud-init to newcomers, and that will indirectly make it easier to
entice new contributors.
