[RFE] Implement pod prioritization

[bdunne]

We have issues with pods being killed and rescheduled in busier environments. Unfortunately postgres is just as likely to be killed as any other worker pods. After a discussion with @Fryguy and @jrafanie we think the design should be as follows:

• Add RBAC permissions for the operator to read, list and write priorityClassNames
• Add 3 items to the CRD for high, medium and low priorityClassName values
• Assign class name values as follows:
  • If all values are specified in CR, use them
  • If no values are set, detect the cluster default. Set low to cluster default, medium = low + 100, high = medium + 100
• Validate that values are reasonable:
  • High should not be more than 1,000,000,000 (use CRD JSON schema validation)
  • Error if high, medium & low are out of order (code validation)
  • Warn if low is less than cluster default? Warn if low is less than 0? (code validation)
• Assign pod priorities:
  • High: postgres, memcached, kafka, httpd
  • Medium: UI & API, orchestrator, maybe operators if possible (may not work if the class names don't exist yet)
  • Low: all other workers

Good call. This keeps us under openshift defaults for critical values

$ oc get priorityclasses
NAME                      VALUE        GLOBAL-DEFAULT   AGE
openshift-user-critical   1000000000   false            89d
system-cluster-critical   2000000000   false            89d
system-node-critical      2000001000   false            89d
