`IstioOperatorSpec` has pass-through fields to the Helm values.yaml API, but these are additionally validated through
a [schema](../operator/pkg/apis/istio/v1alpha1/values_types.proto).
1. [Controller](#k8s-controller) code. The code comprises the K8s listener, webhook and logic for reconciling the cluster
to an `IstioOperatorSpec` CR.
