Kubernetes Operator for Drasi

[amansinghoriginal]

Overview of feature request

Currently, Drasi resources (Sources, Queries, Reactions, etc.) are managed exclusively through the drasi CLI, which interacts with the mgmt_api. While functional, this approach presents challenges for users who want a more Kubernetes-native management experience. Specifically, it hinders the ability to:

• Manage Drasi resources using kubectl: Users familiar with the Kubernetes ecosystem expect to manage all their application resources, including those from Drasi, through the standard Kubernetes API and kubectl.
• Integrate with GitOps workflows: Tools like ArgoCD and Flux, which are standard for continuous deployment in the Kubernetes world, rely on declarative resource definitions in Git. The current CLI-based approach does not fit well with these workflows.
• Unify resource management: A Kubernetes-native approach would allow users to manage Drasi resources alongside their other Kubernetes resources, providing a single, unified view of their applications.
