What type of PR is this?

/kind test

What this PR does / why we need it:

This PR adds an initial implementation of an e2e testing framework for ingress2gateway.

The framework is in pure Go and avoids shelling out to tools such as kubectl or Helm. This makes it highly portable and easy to use.

Use make e2e to run the tests. See README.md for more info.

NOTE: The tests are affected by a race in the codebase that is fixed in #292. Either cherry-pick the fix onto a temporary branch or wait until we merge the fix before running the e2e tests.

Which issue(s) this PR fixes:

Fixes #234

Does this PR introduce a user-facing change?:

NONE

This turned out to be a LOT of commits since I've changed directions a couple of times while working on this. Happy to squash or reorganize the commits to make reviewing easier.

We need a dummy workload so that ingresses and gateways have some
service to send test traffic to.

Kong is both an ingress controller and a GWAPI implementation. Add
helpers for both.

We use port forwarding to reach ingress controllers and gateways in an
infrastructure-agnostic way during testing.

To be able to run multiple test cases concurrently on the same cluster,
some resources must be shared. For example, CRDs are cluster-level
rather than namespace-scoped. In addition, deploying multiple instances
of an ingress controller or GWAPI implementation wastes time and
resources even in cases where it's technically possible to do so.

To address these concerns, we add a resource manager. This construct
allows efficient and thread-safe sharing of resources. A shared resource
is created on first usage, returned on subsequent attempts to acquire
the resources and cleaned up when no users remain.

Verifiers are used to ensure ingress and GWAPI resources process traffic
according to expectations.

We can't use sudo on CI.

This allows for more compact test case definitions and fewer indentation
levels.

Rather than implementing bespoke retry logic across the code base,
implement generic retry helpers and reuse them.

This also extracts the retry logic out of verifiers for a better
separation of concerns.

Call the binary instead of running Go code directly. This simulates
actual customer usage better and works around concurrency issues caused
by multiple test cases executing in parallel.
