(go/v4,deploy-image/alpha-v1) feat: integrate kube-api-linter and fix scaffolds

- Add support for kube-api-linter to validate Kubernetes API definitions
  More info: https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/kube-api-linter
- Fix all tutorials (getting-started, cronjob, multiversion) to comply with lint rules
- Update all plugins scaffolds to according to rules
- Adjust GitHub Actions to build and run the new custom linter in CI
