// Package crd contains utilities for generating CustomResourceDefinitions and
// their corresponding OpenAPI validation schemata.
//
// Markers
//
// Markers live under the markers subpackage. Two types of markers exist:
// those that modify schema generation (for validation), and those that modify
// the rest of the CRD. See the subpackage for more information and all
// supported markers.
//
// Collecting Types and Generating CRDs
//
// The Parser is the entrypoint for collecting the information required to
// generate CRDs. Like loader and collector, its methods are idemptotent, not
// doing extra work if called multiple times.
//
// Parser's method start with Need. Calling NeedXYZ indicates that XYZ should
// be made present in the eqivalent field in the Parser, where it can then be
// loaded from. Each Need method will in turn call Need on anything it needs.
//
// In general, root packages should first be loaded into the Parser with
// NeedPackage. Then, CRDs can be generated with NeedCRDFor.
//
// Errors are generally attached directly to the relevant Package with
// AddError.
//
// Known Packages
//
// There are a few types from Kubernetes that have special meaning, but don't
// have validation markers attached. Those specific types have overrides
// listed in KnownPackages that can be added as overrides to any parser.
//
// Flattening
//
// Once schemata are generated, they can be used directly by external tooling
// (like JSONSchema validators), but must first be "flattened" to not contain
// references before use in a CRD (Kubernetes doesn't allow references in the
// CRD's validation schema).
//
// The Flattener built in to the Parser takes care of flattening out references
// when requesting the CRDs, but can be invoked manually. It will not modify
// the input schemata.
//
// Flattened schemata may further be passed to FlattenEmbedded to remove the
// use of AllOf (which is used to describe embedded struct fields when
// references are in use). This done automatically when fetching CRDs.
