Now that tracing has been split out of the main control plane and into the linkerd-jaeger extension, we remove references to tracing from the main control plane including:
* removing the tracing components from the main control plane chart
* removing the tracing injection logic from the main proxy injector and inject CLI (these will be added back into the new injector in the linkerd-jaeger extension)
* removing tracing related checks (these will be added back into `linkerd jaeger check`)
* removing related tests
We also update the `--control-plane-tracing` flag to configure the control plane components to send traces to the linkerd-jaeger extension. To make sure this works even when the linkerd-jaeger extension is installed in a non-default namespace, we also add a `--control-plane-tracing-namespace` flag which can be used to change the namespace that the control plane components send traces to.
Note that for now, only the control plane components send traces; the proxies in the control plane do not. This is because the linkerd-jaeger injector is not yet available. However, this change adds the appropriate namespace annotations to the control plane namespace to configure the proxies to send traces to the linkerd-jaeger extension once the linkerd-jaeger injector is available.
I tested this by doing the following:
1. bin/linkerd install | kubectl apply -f -
1. bin/helm install jaeger jaeger/charts/jaeger
1. bin/linkerd upgrade --control-plane-tracing=true | kubectl apply -f -
1. kubectl -n linkerd-jaeger port-forward svc/jaeger 16686
1. open http://localhost:16686
1. see traces from the linkerd control plane

This change adds flags `set`, `set-string`, `values`, `set-files`,
etc flags which are used to override the default values. This is
similar to that of Helm.
This also updates the install workflow to directly use Helm v3
pkg for chart loading and generation, without having to use
our chart type, etc.

* Jaeger injector mutating webhook
Closes#5231. This is based off of the `alex/sep-tracing` branch.
This webhook injects the `LINKERD2_PROXY_TRACE_COLLECTOR_SVC_ADDR`,
`LINKERD2_PROXY_TRACE_COLLECTOR_SVC_NAME` and
`LINKERD2_PROXY_TRACE_ATTRIBUTES_PATH` environment vars into the proxy
spec when a pod is created, as well as the podinfo volume and its mount.
If any of these are found to be present already in the pod spec, it
exits without applying a patch.
The `values.yaml` file has been expanded to include config for this
webhook. In particular, one can define a `namespaceSelector` and/or a
`objectSelector` to filter which pods will this webhook act on.
The config entries in `values.yam` for `collectorSvcAddr` and
`collectorSvcAccount` can be overriden with the
`config.linkerd.io/trace-collector` and
`config.alpha.linkerd.io/trace-collector-service-account` annotation at
the namespace or pod spec level.
## How to test:
```bash
docker build . -t ghcr.io/linkerd/jaeger-webhook:0.0.1 -f
jaeger/proxy-mutator/Dockerfile
k3d image import ghcr.io/linkerd/jaeger-webhook:0.0.1
bin/helm-build
linkerd install
helm install jaeger jaeger/charts/jaeger
linkerd inject https://run.linkerd.io/emojivoto.yml | kubectl apply -f -
kubectl -n emojivoto get po -l app=emoji-svc -oyaml | grep -A1 TRACE
```
## Reinvocation policy
The webhookconfig resource is configured with `reinvocationPolicy:
IfNeeded` so that if the tracing injector gets triggered before the
proxy injector, it will get triggered a second time after the proxy
injector runs so it can act on the injected proxy. By default this won't
be necessary because the webhooks run in alphabetical order (this is not
documented in k8s docs though) so
`linkerd-proxy-injector-webhook-config` will run before
`linkerd-proxy-mutator-webhook-config`. In order to test the
reinvocation mechanism, you can change the name of the former so it gets
called first.
I versioned the webhook image as `0.0.1`, but we can decide to align
that with linkerd's main version tag.
* extension: Add new jaeger binary
This branch adds a new jaeger binary project in the jaeger directory.
This follows the same logic as that of `linkerd install`. But as
`linkerd install` VFS logic expects charts to be present in `/charts`
directory, This command gets its own static pkg to generate its own
VFS for its chart.
This covers only the install part of the command
