The value here is that the exec plugin author can use the kubeconfig to assert
how standard input is treated with respect to the exec plugin, e.g.,
- an exec plugin author can ensure that kubectl fails if it cannot provide
standard input to an exec plugin that needs it (Always)
- an exec plugin author can ensure that an client-go process will still call an
exec plugin that prefers standard input even if standard input is not
available (IfAvailable)

- The main idea here is that we want to 1) prevent potentially large CA
bundles from being set in an exec plugin's environment and 2) ensure
that the exec plugin is getting everything it needs in order to talk to
a cluster.
- Avoid breaking existing manual declarations of rest.Config instances by
moving exec Cluster to kubeconfig internal type.
- Use client.authentication.k8s.io/exec to qualify exec cluster extension.
- Deep copy the exec Cluster.Config when we copy a rest.Config.
