Feature: Implement /scale subresource to allow resource autoscaling #304

What problem are you facing?

Autoscaling Azure resources can be hard and would be nice to have it integrated.

How could Crossplane help solve your problem?

KEDA is an application autoscaler for KEDA which allows you to autoscale anything, as long as it supports /scale subresource.

If this provider would support it, we could automatically scale resources based on metrics.

Hi @tomkerkhove ! What do you mean by scaling here? If it means to have more than one instance of the controller pod, it'd not really work with Kubernetes controllers since there has to be only a single controller at a time in the cluster.

No I was more thinking about scaling the resources that are being created. For example, give a SQL instance more resources.
