The Top-line and Deployment Grafana dashboards relied on the
soon-to-be-removed telemetry pipeline metrics.
Update the Grafana dashboards to query for the new, proxy-based metrics.
Grafana dashboard layouts have not changed.
Depends on #635 to render metrics.

Previously we were using the instance label to uniquely identify a pod.
This meant that getting stats by pod name would require extra queries to
Kubernetes to map pod name to instance.
This change adds a pod_name label to metrics at collection time. This
should not affect cardinality as pod_name is invariant with respect to
instance.

Currently, the CLI docker image copies the entire `controller`
directory, though the CLI only requires a few of its subdirectories.
This causes the CLI's docker cache to be needlessly invalidated when,
for instance, a service implementation changes.
By restricting the copied directories to `controller/{api,public,util}`,
build caching is improved.
* Add tests/utils/scripts for running integration tests
Add a suite of integration tests in the `test/` directory, as well as
utilities for testing in the `testutil/` directory.
You can use the `bin/test-run` script to run the full suite of tests,
and the `bin/test-cleanup` script to cleanup after the tests.
The test/README.md file has more information about running tests.

The Prometheus scrape config collects from Conduit proxies, and maps
Kubernetes labels to Prometheus labels, appending "k8s_".

The inject code detects the object it is being injected into, and writes
self-identifying information into the CONDUIT_PROMETHEUS_LABELS
environment variable, so that conduit-proxy may read this information
and report it to Prometheus at collection time.
This change puts the self-identifying information directly into
Kubernetes labels, which Prometheus already collects, removing the need
for conduit-proxy to be aware of this information. The resulting label
in Prometheus is recorded in the form `k8s_deployment`.

* Remove the CONDUIT_PROXY_DESTINATIONS_AUTOCOMPLETE_FQDN setting
The way that Kubernetes configures DNS search suffixes has some negative
consequences as some names like "example.com" are ambiguous: depending on
whether there is a service "example" in the "com" namespace, "example.com"
may refer to an external service or an internal service, and this can
fluctuate over time. In recognition of that we added the
CONDUIT_PROXY_DESTINATIONS_AUTOCOMPLETE_FQDN setting, thinking this would
be part of a solution for users to opt out of the unfortunate behavior
if their applications didn't depend on the DNS search suffix feature.
It turns out similar effects can be acheived using a custom dnsConfig,
starting in Kubernetes 1.10 when dnsConfig reaches the beta stability level.
Now any CONDUIT_PROXY_DESTINATIONS_AUTOCOMPLETE_FQDN-based seems duplicative.
Further, attempting to support it optionally made the code complex and hard
to read.
Therefore, let's just remove it. If/when somebody actually requests this
functionality then we can add it back, if dnsConfig isn't a valid alternative
for them.

Shortly after conduit is installed in k8s environment. The control plane component that establishes a watch endpoint with k8s run in to networking issues during proxy initialization.

Kubernetes will do multiple DNS lookups for a name like
`proxy-api.conduit.svc.cluster.local` based on the default search settings
in /etc/resolv.conf for each container:
1. proxy-api.conduit.svc.cluster.local.conduit.svc.cluster.local. IN A
2. proxy-api.conduit.svc.cluster.local.svc.cluster.local. IN A
3. proxy-api.conduit.svc.cluster.local.cluster.local. IN A
4. proxy-api.conduit.svc.cluster.local. IN A
We do not need or want this search to be done, so avoid it by making each
name absolute by appending a period so that the first three DNS queries
are skipped for each name.
The case for `localhost` is even worse because we expect that `localhost` will
always resolve to 127.0.0.1 and/or ::1, but this is not guaranteed if the default
search is done:
1. localhost.conduit.svc.cluster.local. IN A
2. localhost.svc.cluster.local. IN A
3. localhost.cluster.local. IN A
4. localhost. IN A
Avoid these unnecessary DNS queries by making each name absolute, so that the
first three DNS queries are skipped for each name.

In the initial review for this code (preceding the creation of the
runconduit/conduit repository), it was noted that this container is not
actually used, so this is actually dead code.
Further, this container actualy causes a minor problem, as it doesn't
implement any retry logic, thus it will sometimes often cause errors to
be logged. See
https://github.com/runconduit/conduit/issues/496#issuecomment-370105328.
Further, this is a "buoyantio/" branded container. IF we actually need
such a container then it should be a Conduit-branded container.

The control plane is proxied through the Conduit proxy. The Conduit
proxy is based on the base image, and the control plane containers
and the proxy share a networking namespace. This means we don't
need the extra base utilities in the controller images since we can
use the utilties in the proxy image.
This is a step towards building the initial no-networking Conduit CA
pod. Since the Conduit CA will not do any networking of its own, we
networking debugging utilties are not helpful for it. They are
actually an unnecessary risk because they could facilitate the
exfiltration of the private key of the CA. (The Conduit CA pod won't
have the Conduit Proxy injected into it either.)
This also simplifies & slightly speeds up the building of the
controller images. This is a stepping stone towards being able to
build the controller images without `docker build` to improve build
times.
