Every admission walks the owner chain (Pod, StatefulSet, HelmRelease,
application CR) with one uncached GET per level, and sibling Pods
repeat the same lookups. On a cluster with many tenants that put the
lineage webhook at 300-500ms p99, the largest share of apiserver
admission latency.
Owners are now reused for 60 seconds, successful lookups only. A failed
lookup, whether RESTMapping, NotFound or a timeout, leaves the walk
without an owner, so the object is admitted with no lineage labels and
stays unlabeled until its next UPDATE runs the walk again. Secrets,
Services and PVCs can go a long time between updates, so a cached
failure would leave every object admitted within the TTL unlabeled for
that long, and the aggregated cozystack-api makes such failures
routine: discovery of apps.cozystack.io fails while it rolls.
Non-Pod objects that already carry every lineage label, tenantresource
included, skip the walk, since the objectSelector still matches an
UPDATE whose old object lacks the label. Pods go through it regardless,
as each Pod admission also sets the scheduling class.

Many resources created as part of managed apps in cozystack (pods,
secrets, etc) do not carry predictable labels that unambiguously
indicate which app originally triggered their creation. Some resources
are managed by controllers and other custom resources and this
indirection can lead to loss of information. Other controllers sometimes
simply do not allow setting labels on controlled resources and the
latter do not inherit labels from the owner. This patch implements a
webhook that sidesteps this problem with a universal solution. On
creation of a pod/secret/PVC etc it walks through the owner references
until a HelmRelease is found that can be matched with a managed app
dynamically registered in the Cozystack API server. The pod is mutated
with labels identifying the managed app.
```release-note
[cozystack-controller] Add a mutating webhook to identify the Cozystack
managed app that ultimately owns low-level resources created in the
cluster and label these resources with a reference to said app.
