myasnikovdaniil f6a03e93f8 fix(etcd): complete v1alpha2 transition for in-cluster 1.5→1.6 upgrades (#3270)
Consolidates the etcd `v1alpha2` transition fix for **in-cluster 1.5 →
1.6 upgrades** into a single PR, rebased on current `main`. Supersedes
#3265 and #3261 — their commits are carried here (authorship preserved),
so those PRs can be closed once this lands. Fresh installs use the new
shapes directly and are unaffected, so fresh-install CI does not catch
these; the 1.5 → 1.6 e2e upgrade path is the authoritative regression
guard.

## What this PR does

### 1. Keep the legacy `etcd-headless` Service alive during adoption —
`packages/extra/etcd`
`etcd-migrate` adopts legacy clusters **in place**: the Pods keep their
original `spec.subdomain: etcd-headless` and are dialed at
`etcd-<i>.etcd-headless.<ns>.svc` until they roll onto the operator's
native `<member>.etcd.<ns>.svc` domain. The v1alpha2 operator only
creates the native `etcd` Service and the legacy `etcd-headless` Service
is pruned, so those per-pod names stop resolving (`no such host`),
`MemberList` fails, and `status.readyMembers` never populates — the
`EtcdCluster` never goes `Ready` even though etcd is healthy and in
quorum. We ship a chart-managed transitional headless `etcd-headless`
Service (selector mirrors the operator's native `etcd` Service via
`etcd-operator.cozystack.io/cluster`, `publishNotReadyAddresses: true`)
— the DNS counterpart of the legacy `*.etcd-headless.<ns>.svc` SAN
already kept for this window. Removable together with that SAN once
members roll onto the native subdomain.

### 2. Survive the immutable controller-Deployment selector on upgrade —
`packages/system/etcd-operator` (#3242)
#2859 replaced the upstream etcd-operator chart with the
cozystack-authored one, changing `Deployment.spec.selector.matchLabels`.
`spec.selector` is immutable, so `helm upgrade` cannot patch the
existing Deployment and the whole HelmRelease upgrade fails (`field is
immutable`). A **pre-upgrade hook**
(`templates/pre-upgrade-selector-fix.yaml`: ServiceAccount + Role +
RoleBinding + Job) deletes the Deployment **only** when its live
selector is the pre-1.6 one, so Helm recreates it cleanly. No-op when
the selector already matches, never runs on fresh install.

### 3. Raise the operator's memory cold-start floor —
`packages/system/etcd-operator`
Steady-state working set is ~250Mi; the static `limits.memory: 128Mi`
OOMKills a Pod that starts before the VPA admission webhook rewrites it.
Raise the floor to `256Mi` (and VPA `minAllowed` to match) as defense in
depth so the operator never depends on VPA timing to avoid crashing.

### 4. Make migration 50 (etcd adoption) robust in-cluster —
`packages/core/platform/images/migrations/migrations/50` (was #3261)
Exact server/peer cert-SAN match, Secret-gated wait on the adoption
Secret, and in-cluster (IPv6-safe) kubeconfig handling, so the migration
script drives the adoption reliably from inside the cluster. Covered by
`hack/migration-50-etcd-adopt.bats`.

### 5. Hardening / review fixes (this PR's original scope)
- **Hook `runAsUser: 65532`.** `pre-upgrade-selector-fix.yaml` set
`runAsNonRoot: true` but no numeric `runAsUser`; `clastix/kubectl`'s
image user is the non-numeric name `nonroot`, which the kubelet cannot
verify against `runAsNonRoot` — so the hook Pod fails admission and
silently blocks the very upgrade it exists to unblock. Adds `runAsUser:
65532`, matching the postgres-operator webhook-ready hook that runs the
same image.
- **Digest-pin the kubectl image.** The values comment claimed
digest-pinning but shipped a floating `v1.32` tag. Reuses the digest
postgres-operator vendors, adds the `renovate` annotation, and templates
`repo:tag@digest`.
- **Tests.** `etcd-operator/tests/selector-fix-hook_test.yaml` (hook
wiring, weight ordering, namespaced least-privilege RBAC,
numeric-non-root security context, digest-pinned image),
`etcd-operator/tests/deployment_test.yaml` (256Mi cold-start floor),
`extra/etcd/tests/etcd-cluster_test.yaml` (transitional `etcd-headless`
Service). Each assertion was mutation-tested.

### 6. Derive the default S3 endpoint from the provisioned bucket —
`packages/system/backupstrategy-controller`
Derive the default S3 endpoint (and per-driver scheme / TLS /
`secure_connection`) from the provisioned bucket Secret instead of
requiring it to be hand-set, so etcd (and other) backup strategies get a
working endpoint by default. Docs in
`docs/operations/backup-classes.md`; covered by
`tests/endpoint_form_test.yaml`.

### Verification
- `helm unittest` green on current `main`: etcd-operator **18/18**,
extra/etcd **18/18**, backupstrategy-controller **11/11**.
- Behaviours 1 & 2 were reproduced and confirmed live on a 1.5.2 →
1.6.0-rc.1 adoption (3-node cluster) — recreating the `etcd-headless`
Service took the adopted cluster to `readyMembers=3 / Available=True`.

```release-note
fix(etcd): complete the v1alpha2 transition on in-cluster 1.5→1.6 upgrades — keep the legacy etcd-headless Service alive so adopted members stay resolvable, delete the pre-1.6 operator Deployment via a pre-upgrade hook to get past the immutable selector, raise the operator's memory floor so it does not OOM before the VPA scales it, and make the etcd adoption migration robust in-cluster.
