Support using cert-manager for admission controller certs

[yurrriq]

It would be great if we could use cert-manager to provision the certs for the admission controller. KEDA supports this, for example: https://github.com/kedacore/charts/tree/main/keda/templates/cert-manager

I'll plan to prepare a PR for review.

The following should be a sufficient MWE for what I've hacked together to get around the absence of this feature...

  - chart: sysdig-admissioncontroller-webhook-cert
    name: sysdig-admissioncontroller-webhook-cert
    namespace: sysdig

sysdig-admissioncontroller-webhook-cert/cert.yaml:

apiVersion: cert-manager.io/v1
kind: Certificate
metadata:
  name: sysdig-admissioncontroller-webhook
  namespace: sysdig
spec:
  commonName: sysdig-admissioncontroller-webhook
  dnsNames:

  issuerRef:
    group: cert-manager.io
    kind: ClusterIssuer
    name: selfsigning-issuer
  secretName: sysdig-admissioncontroller-webhook-tls

... where the following ClusterIssuer/selfsigning-issuer already exists.

apiVersion: cert-manager.io/v1
kind: ClusterIssuer
  name: selfsigning-issuer
spec:
  selfSigned: {}

... which results in the following ValidatingWebhookConfiguration/sysdig-admissioncontroller-webhook.

Thanks @yurrriq for this great contribution. We will take a look and wait for the PR to understand how we can officially include support for cert-manager for certificate provision of the AC webhook.

@yurrriq thx!

We will look if we can make it as part of the official chart so you don't need to maintain your changes on top of it 😄

[yurrriq]

Sounds great, thank you! I'm following this issue so can test and verify once ready.

You can see https://github.com/aws/eks-charts/blob/master/stable/aws-load-balancer-controller/values.yaml#L116 for how the AWS Load Balancer Controller handles this exact issue.

[yurrriq]

Oops, sorry, I totally missed the "we'll wait for the PR". For some reason I though y'all were gonna implement this internally... I'm back to work tomorrow, so depending on priority conflicts I can probably whip something together in the next couple days.

[yurrriq]

I've created #1791 with the minimal set of features to support my use case for now.
