Summary
Objects in Kubernetes can have names up to 253 characters in length. However label values must not be longer than 63 characters. Since the agent uses the remote (kcp) name/namespace as labels, the syncing failed when objects with names longer than 63 characters were in kcp.
This PR fixes that by hashing the namespace/name and storing the original names, for reference, as annotations instead. The same issue affected the secret store, because keys in a secret's data must also not be overly long, so the agent now uses hashes for these as well.
Existing synced objects will not be found under this new implementation, but the agent will already automatically "adopt" existing objects and re-label/annotate them as needed. The data in the store secrets will also be recreated, so effectively every object is fully re-created on the service cluster side, potentially undoing changes from operators. Good thing this is alpha software 😁
