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.

This commit adds the ability for users to specify an install hint for
their exec credential provider binary.
In the exec credential provider workflow, if the exec credential binary
does not exist, then the user will see some sort of ugly
exec: exec: "does-not-exist": executable file not found in $PATH
error message. If some user downloads a kubeconfig from somewhere, they
may not know that kubectl is trying to use a binary to obtain
credentials to auth to the API, and scratch their head when they see
this error message. Furthermore, even if a user does know that their
kubeconfig is trying to run a binary, they might not know how to obtain
the binary. This install hint seeks to ease the above 2 user pains.

With support of http, https, and socks5 proxy support. We already
support configuring this via environmnet variables, but this approach
becomes inconvenient dealing with multiple clusters on different
networks, that require different proxies to connect to. Most solutions
require wrapping clients (like kubectl) in bash scripts.
