Aleksei Sviridkin 8ed34166cf perf(lineage): cache owner GETs and short-circuit re-admission (#2667)
## What this PR does

The lineage mutating webhook walks the owner chain (Pod, StatefulSet,
HelmRelease, application CR) on every admission, with one uncached
dynamic GET per level, and sibling Pods of the same parent repeat the
same lookups. On a multi-tenant cluster this put `lineage.cozystack.io`
at 300-500ms p99 in
`apiserver_admission_webhook_admission_duration_seconds`, the largest
share of admission latency.

Owners are now cached in-process for 60 seconds, and only successful
lookups are stored. A failed lookup (RESTMapping, NotFound, 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. The aggregated cozystack-api makes such
failures routine, since discovery of `apps.cozystack.io` fails while it
rolls. The one staleness left is the scheduling class, which is read
from the application's spec: a change to it reaches newly admitted Pods
up to 60 seconds later.

The cache is not swept below 4096 entries, so up to that many owner
objects stay in memory for the life of the process. Above that, each
insert drops the expired entries among a random sample of 64, which
keeps the write lock short.

Non-Pod objects that already carry every lineage label,
`internal.cozystack.io/tenantresource` included, skip the walk, because
the objectSelector still matches an UPDATE whose old object lacks the
label. Pods go through regardless, as each Pod admission also sets the
scheduling class.

### Screenshots

Not a UI change.

### Downstream repositories

The diff is Go under `pkg/lineage` and
`internal/lineagecontrollerwebhook` only: no label, annotation, CRD,
values key, `hack/` file or telemetry metric is added or renamed, so no
entry of the trigger map applies.

### Release note

```release-note
perf(lineage): the lineage mutating webhook caches owner lookups for 60 seconds and skips the owner walk for non-Pod objects that already carry lineage labels, cutting admission latency on clusters with many tenants.
```

## Summary by CodeRabbit

* **New Features**
* Lineage and owner lookups now use a time-limited in-memory cache,
reducing repeated API requests during admission processing.
Scheduling-class updates may take up to 60 seconds to appear on new
Pods.
* Non-Pod objects with complete lineage labels are allowed without
additional owner lookup or mutation.
* **Tests**
* Added coverage for cache hits, misses, expiration, and retrying
lookups after errors.
