Timofei Larkin 146e06e75e feat(api): take Application name limits from the application's own schema (#4367)
## What this PR does

The aggregated API server capped two kinds' names by knowing what their
charts render. A `Kubernetes` cluster name was held to 32 characters
because every worker pool is a `KubernetesNodes` release named
`kubernetes-nodes-<name>-<pool>`, and the default `md0` pool has to fit
the 53-character Helm release name limit. A `Kafka` name was held to 44
because the KRaft controller pod `kafka-<name>-c-<hash>-<id>` has to fit
the 63-character DNS-1123 label limit. The arithmetic is right, but it
is the charts' knowledge living in the platform: the next application
with a sub-resource budget needs another `if r.kindName == ...` branch,
and an application served from outside this repository — the whole point
of `ApplicationDefinition` — cannot get one at all.

An application now declares the limits on its own name in its own
schema, and the server applies whatever it finds there for whatever kind
the definition describes. The chart's `values.yaml` carries a `## @name`
annotation, `cozyvalues-gen` v1.7.0 publishes it at the root of
`values.schema.json` as `x-cozystack-name`, and `hack/update-crd.sh`
carries it into the `ApplicationDefinition`:

```yaml
## @name {string} - Cluster name. Every worker pool is a separate KubernetesNodes release named `kubernetes-nodes-<name>-<pool>`, so the name must leave room for the default `md0` pool inside the 53-character Helm release name limit.
## @maxLength 32
```

```json
"x-cozystack-name": {
  "type": "string",
  "description": "Cluster name. Every worker pool is a separate KubernetesNodes release named `kubernetes-nodes-<name>-<pool>`, so the name must leave room for the default `md0` pool inside the 53-character Helm release name limit.",
  "maxLength": 32
}
```

`maxLength`, `minLength` and `pattern` are honoured; `pattern` is
unanchored, as JSON Schema specifies. A declaration only tightens:
`prefix + name` must still fit the 53-character Helm limit. A rejected
name is answered with the chart's own description, or with "limit
declared by the <Kind> application" when the chart gives none.

The schema is untrusted input — definitions from other repositories are
written by hand — so a declaration that cannot be enforced as written
(not an object, a type error, an unknown keyword such as a misspelled
`maxLenght`, `maxLength` below 1, a negative `minLength`, `minLength`
above `maxLength` or above the Helm budget, a pattern that is not RE2)
refuses every create of that kind with `configuration error: the <Kind>
ApplicationDefinition declares an invalid x-cozystack-name: …`, and logs
the same at start-up. Dropping the declaration would admit names the
chart cannot render; applying it would reject every name and blame the
user. Other kinds are unaffected, and existing objects of the affected
kind can still be read, updated and deleted.

An upgrade brings `cozystack-api` up before `kubernetes-rd` and
`kafka-rd` re-render (`kubernetes-rd` depends on `cozystack-engine`), so
the new server can briefly read a definition that predates its
declaration. For exactly that case — a definition that declares nothing
— the two previous caps stay in `legacyNameCaps` as a floor, to be
removed once no supported upgrade starts from such a definition. That is
the only per-kind knowledge left in the name checks.

Also in this PR:

- The `pre-commit` job pins `cozyvalues-gen` v1.7.0, the first release
that understands `@name`
([cozystack/cozyvalues-gen#33](https://github.com/cozystack/cozyvalues-gen/pull/33)).
- The API review gate now diffs the root `x-cozystack-name` of every
definition as `metadata.name`, so a chart that lowers its cap or adds a
pattern is reported like any other tightened field. On this PR it
reports the Kubernetes and Kafka caps as added; their effective limits
are unchanged.
- The migration 56 comment that pointed at the removed
`maxKubernetesClusterName` now points at the chart's declaration.

Not in scope, because none of it is a static limit a chart can declare:
the `Tenant` name pattern in `pkg/apis/apps/validation`, the computed
tenant-namespace length check (it depends on the parent namespace at
request time), the tenant quota hierarchy, and the Phase 2 removed-field
warning for `Kubernetes`.

### How it is tested

`TestNameCapComesFromTheShippedSchema` reads the shipped `kubernetes`
and `kafka` ApplicationDefinitions off disk, builds storage through
`NewREST` as the server does, and checks the cap and the chart's
explanation; it then rewrites `maxLength` inside the shipped schema and
checks the limit moves with it, which a cap held in code would not.
`TestInvalidNameSchemaFailsClosed` covers each malformed declaration
through the same path, `TestLegacyNameCapsCoverUndeclaredDefinitions`
pins the upgrade floor and that a declaration replaces it, and
`TestClassifyNameDeclaration` covers the gate.

### Downstream repositories

Two repositories are affected and neither follow-up is filed yet, so no
box is ticked.

- `cozystack/website` — `content/en/docs/next/development.md` documents
the `values.yaml` annotations and needs `@name`;
`content/en/docs/next/cozystack-api/application-definitions.md`
describes `openAPISchema` and needs `x-cozystack-name`.
- `cozystack/external-apps-example` — it pins no `cozyvalues-gen`
version and regenerates against whatever is current; nothing in it
declares a name constraint, so it is unaffected until it chooses to.

### Release note

```release-note
feat(api): Application name limits now come from the application's own schema instead of being hardcoded per kind in the aggregated API server. A chart declares them with a `## @name` annotation in `values.yaml`, which cozyvalues-gen v1.7.0 publishes as `x-cozystack-name`; the API server enforces `maxLength`, `minLength` and `pattern` on `metadata.name` for any kind, answers a rejected name with the chart's own explanation, and refuses creates of a kind whose declaration it cannot enforce with a configuration error. The Kubernetes (32) and Kafka (44) name caps are unchanged in effect and are now declared by their charts.

## Summary by CodeRabbit

* **New Features**
* Applications can declare minimum and maximum name lengths and
formatting patterns.
* Kubernetes cluster names are limited to 32 characters, and Kafka
cluster names to 44 characters, to meet generated resource naming
limits.
* Names that violate declared constraints are rejected with an
explanatory message. Tighter name constraints are also reported as
breaking changes.
* Declared maximum lengths cannot exceed the platform’s existing Helm
release-name budget.

* **Documentation**
* Added guidance on declaring and enforcing chart-specific resource-name
limits.
