This client exposes operations on generic metadata (get, list, watch, delete)
and allows patch operations. The client always uses protobuf and requests
the server transform the response into the appropriate object. Using this
client simplifies the work of generic controllers by allowing them to treat
all objects the same, and also improves performance both in the amount of
data sent as well as allowing protobuf on CRD resources.
