We sometimes see that integration test fails due to runner replicas not meeting the expected number in a timely manner. After investigating a bit, this turned out to be due to that HRA updates on webhook-based autoscaler and HRA controller are conflicting. This changes the controllers to use Patch instead of Update to make conflicts less likely to happen.
I have also updated the hra controller to use Patch when updating RunnerDeployment, too.
Overall, these changes should make the webhook-based autoscaling more reliable due to less conflicts.
Similar to #348 for #346, but for HRA.Spec.CapacityReservations usually modified by the webhook-based autoscaler controller.
This patch tries to fix that by improving the webhook-based autoscaler controller to omit expired reservations on updating HRA spec.
The controller had been writing confusing messages like the below on missing scale target:
```
Found too many scale targets: It must be exactly one to avoid ambiguity. Either set WatchNamespace for the webhook-based autoscaler to let it only find HRAs in the namespace, or update Repository or Organization fields in your RunnerDeployment resources to fix the ambiguity.{"scaleTargets": ""}
```
This fixes that, while improving many kinds of messages written while reconcilation, so that the error message is more actionable.
* feat: HorizontalRunnerAutoscaler Webhook server
This introduces a Webhook server that responds GitHub `check_run`, `pull_request`, and `push` events by scaling up matched HorizontalRunnerAutoscaler by 1 replica. This allows you to immediately add "resource slack" for future GitHub Actions job runs, without waiting next sync period to add insufficient runners.
This feature is highly inspired by https://github.com/philips-labs/terraform-aws-github-runner. terraform-aws-github-runner can manage one set of runners per deployment, where actions-runner-controller with this feature can manage as many sets of runners as you declare with HorizontalRunnerAutoscaler and RunnerDeployment pairs.
On each GitHub event received, the webhook server queries repository-wide and organizational runners from the cluster and searches for the single target to scale up. The webhook server tries to match HorizontalRunnerAutoscaler.Spec.ScaleUpTriggers[].GitHubEvent.[CheckRun|Push|PullRequest] against the event and if it finds only one HRA, it is the scale target. If none or two or more targets are found for repository-wide runners, it does the same on organizational runners.
Changes:
* Fix integration test
* Update manifests
* chart: Add support for github webhook server
* dockerfile: Include github-webhook-server binary
* Do not import unversioned go-github
* Update README
