cmd/k8s-operator: add .gitignore for generated chart CRDs (#17406)
Add a .gitignore for the chart version of the CRDs that we never commit,
because the static manifest CRD files are the canonical version. This
makes it easier to deploy the CRDs via the helm chart in a way that
reflects the production workflow without making the git checkout
"dirty".

Given that the chart CRDs are ignored, we can also now safely generate
them for the kube-generate-all Makefile target without being a nuisance
to the state of the git checkout. Added a slightly more robust repo root
detection to the generation logic to make sure the command works from
the context of both the Makefile and the image builder command we run
for releases in corp.

Tailscale Kubernetes operator deployment manifests

./cmd/k8s-operator/deploy contain various Tailscale Kubernetes operator deployment manifests.

Helm chart

./cmd/k8s-operator/deploy/chart contains Tailscale operator Helm chart templates. The chart templates are also used to generate the static manifest, so developers must ensure that any changes applied to the chart have been propagated to the static manifest by running go generate tailscale.com/cmd/k8s-operator

Static manifests

./cmd/k8s-operator/deploy/manifests/operator.yaml is a static manifest for the operator generated from the Helm chart templates for the operator.
