Rename the old "topology-gc" to just "gc". Simplify the setup a bit by
including the RBAC rules in the "gc" base.
Note: we don't enable nfd-gc in the default overlay, yet, as the
NodeFeature API isn't enabled (gc is not needed).
NodeResourceTopology(aka NRT) custom resource is used to enable NUMA aware Scheduling in Kubernetes.
As of now node-feature-discovery daemons are used to advertise those
resources but there is no service responsible for removing obsolete
objects(without corresponding Kubernetes node).
This patch adds new daemon called nfd-topology-gc which removes old
NRTs.

Drop the gRPC communication to nfd-master and connect to the Kubernetes
API server directly when updating NodeResourceTopology objects.
Topology-updater already has connection to the API server for listing
Pods so this is not that dramatic change. It also simplifies the code
a lot as there is no need for the NFD gRPC client and no need for
managing TLS certs/keys.
This change aligns nfd-topology-updater with the future direction of
nfd-worker where the gRPC API is being dropped and replaced by a
CRD-based API.
This patch also update deployment files and documentation to reflect
this change.
Align "topologyupdater" overlay with "topologyupdater-job". Both should
deploy topologyupdater as a standalone application. Previously the
topologyupdater overlay did not deploy nfd-master at all (but deployed
nfd-worker instead) causing the pods to end up in crashloopbackoff as
there was no master to communicate with.
- create an overlay for deployment of all components
- create an overlay for just topologyupdater deployment (to be deployed in
conjunction with the default overlay)
- create a separate overlay for deployment of master and topologyupdater-job
