This is a work in progress - building on top of the multi-cluster installer.

As an extreme, the goal is to be possible to run Istio workloads in a cluster without installing any Istio component
in that cluster. Currently, the minimum we require is the security provider (node agent or citadel).

### Install Istio CRDs

This is the first step of the installation. Please do not remove or edit any CRD - config currently requires
