gatewayapi: add support for b/g mirroring

Add support for mirroring requests while performing B/G deployments with Gateway API. A `RequestMirror` filter pointing to the canary service is added to the HTTPRoute during a Canary run. During the Canary run, drift correction for `.spec.rules[].filters` is disabled to avoid removing the mirror filter. Signed-off-by: Sanskar Jaiswal <[email protected]>
