myasnikovdaniil e5bb3cda07 fix(kubernetes): move the OIDC users out of the bootstrap Job's script (#5213)
## What this PR does

Found while checking for other places with the failure from
https://github.com/cozystack/cozystack/issues/4968: data that grows with
configuration is passed to a process as one argument, and Linux allows
128 KiB for that. This one is in the `kubernetes` app and there is no
issue about it yet.

The OIDC bootstrap Job wrote a ClusterRoleBinding for every `oidc.users`
entry into its `sh -c` script, 526 bytes per user. I rendered current
main with `helm template` and users like `user123@example.org`: 238
users give a 130,889 bytes script that starts, 239 give 131,415 bytes
and `exec` fails with E2BIG. Then the container can't start, the
post-install and post-upgrade hook fails after its retries and the
HelmRelease of the tenant cluster stays unready. Schema has no limit for
`oidc.users` and each person needs own entry, so a cluster shared by 240
people gets there.

Now the bindings and the list of their names are rendered by the new
`oidc-rbac-bindings.yaml` into a ConfigMap `<release>-oidc-bindings`
that the Job mounts, so the script is 6,380 bytes for any number of
users. The ConfigMap has its own 1 MiB limit, about 2,500 users at 417
bytes each. Names, labels and roles of the bindings stay the same. I
compared the render of old and new chart for eight emails (ones YAML
reads as a boolean or null, a number, a quote, an apostrophe, unicode
and two plain) and the bindings are identical, so existing ones are
updated in place and nothing is orphaned.

The prune step reads the same ConfigMap. If the list is not mounted the
Job stops before it deletes anything, because `grep` on a missing file
exits 2, `! grep` is true and every binding of the release would be
pruned. A release with no users applies nothing (`kubectl apply` fails
on an empty file) and prunes all stale bindings, same as before.

`hack/kubernetes-oidc-bindings.bats` renders 300 users, checks the
script is under the limit without any email in it and that every user
has one binding with the old name and role. Three more tests run the
rendered script against a fake `kubectl` and check what it applies and
deletes. The prune condition forced to true or to false passes all
helm-unittest cases, so this part is tested in bats. The bug is in
release-1.6 and release-1.7 as well.

### Downstream repositories

I walked the trigger map against the diff (one chart template, its tests
and a bats file): no package added or removed, no values, schema or
default changed, no output Secret or Service renamed.

### Release note

```release-note
fix(kubernetes): the OIDC bootstrap Job no longer fails to start for a tenant cluster with about 240 or more oidc.users, the bindings now come from a ConfigMap the Job mounts.
```

## Summary by CodeRabbit

* **New Features**
* Kubernetes OIDC configuration now supports per-user role bindings,
with administrator and viewer access assigned according to each user’s
role.
* OIDC role bindings are kept in sync with the configured user list,
including removal of obsolete bindings.
* Deployments with no OIDC users or with OIDC mode disabled continue to
avoid creating user bindings.
