Previously, our controllers would automatically create a CredentialIssuer with a singleton name. The helpers we had for this also used "raw" client access and did not take advantage of the informer cache pattern.
With this change, the CredentialIssuer is always created at install time in the ytt YAML. The controllers now only update the existing CredentialIssuer status, and they do so using the informer cache as much as possible.
This change is targeted at only the kubecertagent controller to start. The impersonatorconfig controller will be updated in a following PR along with other changes.

Followup on the previous comment to split apart the ServiceAccount of the kube-cert-agent and the main concierge pod. This is a bit cleaner and ensures that in testing our main Concierge pod never requires any privileged permissions.

Since 0dfb3e95c5, we no longer directly create the kube-cert-agent Pod, so our "use"
permission on PodSecurityPolicies no longer has the intended effect. Since the deployments controller is now the
one creating pods for us, we need to get the permission on the PodSpec of the target pod instead, which we do somewhat
simply by using the same service account as the main Concierge pods.
We still set `automountServiceAccountToken: false`, so this should not actually give any useful permissions to the
agent pod when running.

This controller is responsible for cleaning up kube-cert-agent pods that were deployed by previous versions.
They are easily identified because they use a different `kube-cert-agent.pinniped.dev` label compared to the new agent pods (`true` vs. `v2`).

This is a relatively large rewrite of much of the kube-cert-agent controllers. Instead of managing raw Pod objects, they now create a single Deployment and let the builtin k8s controller handle it from there.
This reduces the amount of code we need and should handle a number of edge cases better, especially those where a Pod becomes "wedged" and needs to be recreated.

The impersonator_test.go unit test now starts the impersonation
server and makes real HTTP requests against it using client-go.
It is backed by a fake Kube API server.
The CA IssuePEM() method was missing the argument to allow a slice
of IP addresses to be passed in.
To make an impersonation request, first make a TokenCredentialRequest
to get a certificate. That cert will either be issued by the Kube
API server's CA or by a new CA specific to the impersonator. Either
way, you can then make a request to the impersonator and present
that client cert for auth and the impersonator will accept it and
make the impesonation call on your behalf.
The impersonator http handler now borrows some Kube library code
to handle request processing. This will allow us to more closely
mimic the behavior of a real API server, e.g. the client cert
auth will work exactly like the real API server.

- This commit does not include the updates that we plan to make to
the `status.strategies[].frontend` field of the CredentialIssuer.
That will come in a future commit.
This is more than an automatic merge. It also includes a rewrite of the CredentialIssuer API impersonation proxy fields using the new structure, and updates to the CLI to account for that new API.

These controllers were a bit inconsistent. There were cases where the controllers ran out of the expected order and the custom labels might not have been applied.
We should still plan to remove this label handling or move responsibility into the middleware layer, but this avoids any regression.

- The CA cert will end up in the end user's kubeconfig on their client
machine, so if it changes they would need to fetch the new one and
update their kubeconfig. Therefore, we should avoid changing it as
much as possible.
- Now the controller writes the CA to a different Secret. It writes both
the cert and the key so it can reuse them to create more TLS
certificates in the future.
- For now, it only needs to make more TLS certificates if the old
TLS cert Secret gets deleted or updated to be invalid. This allows
for manual rotation of the TLS certs by simply deleting the Secret.
In the future, we may want to implement some kind of auto rotation.
- For now, rotation of both the CA and TLS certs will also happen if
you manually delete the CA Secret. However, this would cause the end
users to immediately need to get the new CA into their kubeconfig,
so this is not as elegant as a normal rotation flow where you would
have a window of time where you have more than one CA.
This change adds a new virtual aggregated API that can be used by
any user to echo back who they are currently authenticated as. This
has general utility to end users and can be used in tests to
validate if authentication was successful.

Also added more unit tests for the load balancer.

- Watch a configmap to read the configuration of the impersonation
proxy and reconcile it.
- Implements "auto" mode by querying the API for control plane nodes.
- WIP: does not create a load balancer or proper TLS certificates yet.
Those will come in future commits.

Yes, this is a huge commit.
The middleware allows you to customize the API groups of all of the
*.pinniped.dev API groups.
Some notes about other small things in this commit:
- We removed the internal/client package in favor of pkg/conciergeclient. The
two packages do basically the same thing. I don't think we use the former
anymore.
- We re-enabled cluster-scoped owner assertions in the integration tests.
This code was added in internal/ownerref. See a0546942 for when this
assertion was removed.
- Note: the middlware code is in charge of restoring the GV of a request object,
so we should never need to write mutations that do that.
- We updated the supervisor secret generation to no longer manually set an owner
reference to the deployment since the middleware code now does this. I think we
still need some way to make an initial event for the secret generator
controller, which involves knowing the namespace and the name of the generated
secret, so I still wired the deployment through. We could use a namespace/name
tuple here, but I was lazy.

This should fix integration tests running on clusters that don't have
visible controller manager pods (e.g., GKE). Pinniped should boot, not
find any controller manager pods, but still post a status in the CIC.
I also updated a test helper so that we could tell the difference
between when an event was not added and when an event was added with
an empty key.

- Only inject things through the constructor that the controller
will need
- Use pkg private constants when possible for things that are not
actually configurable by the user
- Make the agent pod template private to the pkg
- Introduce a test helper to reduce some duplicated test code
- Remove some `it.Focus` lines that were accidentally committed, and
repair the broken tests that they were hiding
This thing is supposed to be used to help our CredentialRequest handler issue certs with a dynamic
CA keypair.
