Update AKS acceptance/mock tests to use kubernetes 1.27.9

[gshaw-pivotal]

1. What this PR does / why we need it:

AKS acceptance tests started failing as the kubernetes version they use (1.26.6) is no longer available in the Azure region the test executes against. Updated to kubernetes version 1.27.9

2. Which issue(s) this PR fixes

N/A

3. Additional information

• Kubernetes 1.26.x in Azure is reaching EOL and various patch versions are starting to become unavailable for use.
• Kubernetes 1.27 has EOL in Jul 2024 and LTS until Jul 2025.
• To make it easier to update the version in the future, added a variable to hold the version string. Future updates only therefore need to change the value of this variable

4. Special notes for your reviewer

Tested locally in both mock and acceptance mode (against real stack).
