Andrei Kvapil 4287d17aef feat(platform): add support for non-Talos Kubernetes deployments (#1939)
## Summary

Enable Cozystack deployment on generic Kubernetes clusters (kubeadm,
k3s, RKE2, etc.) by making Talos-specific configurations conditional and
adding a new `isp-full-generic` bundle variant.

## Problem 1: Cilium uses hardcoded Talos API endpoint

**Issue**: Cilium is configured to connect to Kubernetes API at
`localhost:7445` (Talos KubePrism). On non-Talos clusters, the API
server runs on standard `<node-ip>:6443`.

**Solution**: Add `networking.apiServer.host` and
`networking.apiServer.port` to platform values, passed to Cilium via
bundle template.

**Why this approach**: Allows per-deployment configuration while keeping
Talos defaults for backwards compatibility.

## Problem 2: Cilium cgroup automount disabled

**Issue**: `values-talos.yaml` sets `cgroup.autoMount.enabled: false`
because Talos mounts cgroups. On Ubuntu/Debian, Cilium needs to mount
cgroups itself.

**Solution**: Add `networking.cilium.cgroup.autoMount` configuration and
create `cilium-generic` / `kubeovn-cilium-generic` networking variants
without `values-talos.yaml`.

**Why this approach**: Separate variants avoid complex conditional logic
in templates and make the difference explicit.

## Problem 3: KubeOVN helm lookup fails on fresh clusters

**Issue**: KubeOVN chart uses `lookup` to find control-plane nodes.
During initial deployment, lookup returns empty results causing
installation failure.

**Solution**: Add `networking.kubeovn.MASTER_NODES` parameter to
explicitly pass node IPs when needed.

**Why this approach**: Helm lookup is unreliable during initial
deployment; explicit configuration is more predictable.

## Problem 4: LinstorSatelliteConfiguration breaks non-Talos nodes

**Issue**: `cozystack-talos` LinstorSatelliteConfiguration removes DRBD
init containers (`drbd-module-loader`, `drbd-shutdown-guard`). These are
required on Ubuntu/Debian where DRBD modules aren't pre-loaded.

**Solution**: Add `talos.enabled` value (default: true) and wrap the
configuration in `{{- if .Values.talos.enabled }}`.

**Why this approach**: Conditional rendering is cleaner than node
selectors (Talos has no unique default label) and maintains backwards
compatibility.

## Problem 5: linstor-scheduler image tag invalid for k3s

**Issue**: k3s reports version as `v1.35.0+k3s1`. The `+` character is
invalid in Docker image tags, causing `InvalidImageName` error for
kube-scheduler.

**Solution**: Strip distribution suffix using `regexReplaceAll "\\+.*$"`
in the helper template.

**Why this approach**: k3s version `v1.35.0+k3s1` is based on upstream
`v1.35.0`, so stripping the suffix produces the correct upstream image
tag. This is automatic and doesn't require manual version specification.

## Problem 6: No bundle for non-Talos deployments

**Issue**: `isp-full` bundle always uses Talos-specific networking and
doesn't pass `talos.enabled=false` to linstor.

**Solution**: Add `isp-full-generic` bundle variant that uses
`kubeovn-cilium-generic` networking and passes `talos.enabled=false` to
linstor.

**Why this approach**: Dedicated bundle variant makes deployment
straightforward — users just set `bundle-name: isp-full-generic` without
needing post-install patches.

## Files Changed

| Path | Change |
|------|--------|
| `packages/core/platform/values.yaml` | Add apiServer, cilium.cgroup,
kubeovn.MASTER_NODES config |
| `packages/core/platform/sources/networking.yaml` | Add generic
variants |
| `packages/core/platform/templates/bundles/system.yaml` | Add
isp-full-generic bundle |
| `packages/system/linstor/values.yaml` | Add talos.enabled |
| `packages/system/linstor/templates/satellites-talos.yaml` |
Conditional rendering |
| `packages/system/linstor-scheduler/.../templates/_helpers.tpl` | Strip
version suffix |
| `packages/system/linstor-scheduler/.../templates/deployment.yaml` |
Use helper for image tag |

## Testing

Tested on k3s v1.35.0+k3s1 with Ubuntu 24.04 LTS. All HelmReleases
deploy successfully without post-install patches.

## Breaking Changes

None. Existing Talos deployments continue to work unchanged with default
values.
