* Allow configuring pod priority globally and per cluster.
Allow to specify pod priority class for all pods managed by the operator,
as well as for those belonging to individual clusters.
Controlled by the pod_priority_class_name operator configuration
parameter and the podPriorityClassName manifest option.
See https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/configuration/pod-priority-preemption/#priorityclass
for the explanation on how to define priority classes since Kubernetes 1.8.
Some import order changes are due to go fmt.
Removal of OrphanDependents deprecated field.

A repair is a sync scan that acts only on those clusters that indicate
that the last add, update or sync operation on them has failed. It is
supposed to kick in more frequently than the repair scan. The repair
scan still remains to be useful to fix the consequences of external
actions (i.e. someone deletes a postgres-related service by mistake)
unbeknownst to the operator.
The repair scan is controlled by the new repair_period parameter in the
operator configuration. It has to be at least 2 times more frequent than
a sync scan to have any effect (a normal sync scan will update both last
synced and last repaired attributes of the controller, since repair is
just a sync underneath).
A repair scan could be queued for a cluster that is already being synced
if the sync period exceeds the interval between repairs. In that case a
repair event will be discarded once the corresponding worker finds out
that the cluster is not failing anymore.

* During initial Event processing submit the service account for pods and bind it to a cluster role that allows Patroni to successfully start. The cluster role is assumed to be created by the k8s cluster administrator.
* Up until now, the operator read its own configuration from the
configmap. That has a number of limitations, i.e. when the
configuration value is not a scalar, but a map or a list. We use a
custom code based on github.com/kelseyhightower/envconfig to decode
non-scalar values out of plain text keys, but that breaks when the data
inside the keys contains both YAML-special elememtns (i.e. commas) and
complex quotes, one good example for that is search_path inside
`team_api_role_configuration`. In addition, reliance on the configmap
forced a flag structure on the configuration, making it hard to write
and to read (see
https://github.com/zalando-incubator/postgres-operator/pull/308#issuecomment-395131778).
The changes allow to supply the operator configuration in a proper YAML
file. That required registering a custom CRD to support the operator
configuration and provide an example at
manifests/postgresql-operator-default-configuration.yaml. At the moment,
both old configmap and the new CRD configuration is supported, so no
compatibility issues, however, in the future I'd like to deprecate the
configmap-based configuration altogether. Contrary to the
configmap-based configuration, the CRD one doesn't embed defaults into
the operator code, however, one can use the
manifests/postgresql-operator-default-configuration.yaml as a starting
point in order to build a custom configuration.
Since previously `ReadyWaitInterval` and `ReadyWaitTimeout` parameters
used to create the CRD were taken from the operator configuration, which
is not possible if the configuration itself is stored in the CRD object,
I've added the ability to specify them as environment variables
`CRD_READY_WAIT_INTERVAL` and `CRD_READY_WAIT_TIMEOUT` respectively.
Per review by @zerg-junior and @Jan-M.
* Define sidecars in the operator configuration.
Right now only the name and the docker image can be defined, but with
the help of the pod_environment_configmap parameter arbitrary
environment variables can be passed to the sidecars.
* Refactoring around generatePodTemplate.

To improve the documentation we need to split it into smaller parts:
* quickstart (in the readme)
* general concepts
* tutorials
* how to
* references
And then add the missing information. So far I just split the existing
documentation and left references almost empty. I assume that references
may duplicate the rest of the documentation in a way that the doc will
have references to this section, that contains all the formal details.
