Ability to specify annotations to jobs

[braghettos]

Hi everyone! My use case is the following: I need to use the job-executor-service to connect to an application server in order to deploy a .war but credentials need to be fetched from a Vault. It would be great if I could set some annotations that could let Vault to inject a sidecar for secrets management.

Thanks @braghettos for your request.

If we think about a more general user story, the request would also be "Pass secrets from Vault to Job-Executor", where the annotation part is then just a technical detail (among others).

I guess there would then be a side-car that provides secrets? https://learn.hashicorp.com/tutorials/vault/kubernetes-sidecar

@christian-kreuzberger-dtx or even better via CSI driver: https://learn.hashicorp.com/tutorials/vault/kubernetes-secret-store-driver?in=vault/kubernetes.

@christian-kreuzberger-dtx that's great! Giving a look at the code looks promising.
