Potentially dumb question about rear hubs

So, I am getting a Planet X Kaffenback 2 frameset to build into a winter commuter. I am fine with most of the build stuff, but have really confused with rear hubs. (I am needing to sort out getting wheels built because I am going to be using a dynamo hub on the front).
So the frame has a 135 OLD and is set up for disc brakes. So an MTB rear hub should work fine. Except the freehub needs to take a road cassette (I am wanting to build it up around 105). SJS website tells me that the Shimano MTB hubs don't take a road cassette.
So, a few questions. Apologies if these are really basic. I'm not very good with wheels stuff. (&, yes, I could simply ask my LBS to build up some suitable wheels, but the point of building up is to find out what I don't know and then to find the answers!)
1. How can I make a rear MTB hub work (does it just need a new freehub, or would I need an MTB cassette, and would this need a different rear mech)?
2. Outwith the Shimano options, are there any other reasonably priced hubs that might work? Much as I like the Hope hub on my best bike, I don't mind not spending £100+ on a rear hub!)
Thanks in advance

Hence the confusion...

Are there are easy to find examples of a disc compatible rear hub that would work? I can find Hope hubs, but can't really afford them. I have looked at the Novatec website & I am sure that they would sell something, but can find no useful way to search their site....

Planet X have this one for £34 at the mo, but haven't had a proper look at mine to confirm if it's 11/10 speed yet:

I'd be interested in hearing if the Planet X hub is compatible. Otherwise the Novatec ones will work well enough.
Feel free to post if there are any further options!

The freehub design is interesting - 72 points of engagement apparently, means no lag going from freewheeling to pedalling. Interested to see how the hold up.
As for the OP's question, most road disc wheels that are QR use a 135mm axle. And Shimano make some very reasonably priced ones - their RS505 rear 11-speed road disc hub, for example, is just over £30 and has 135mm OLN.
