feature: Gitlab Runner Users

[Breee]

What and Why?

• Gitlab 17 will deprecate the traditional runner registration flow, thus we need to create gitlab runner users.
• As an operator of Gitlab i want to be able to create and manage gitlab runners according to the new registration flow,
• It would be great to have these runners as Crossplane Managed ressources as they can also automatically write the runner-tokens into a secret which can be picked up by gitlab runner operator or so.
• This would also enable us to easily rotate gitlab runner registration tokens

How

Schema wise, something similar to https://registry.terraform.io/providers/gitlabhq/gitlab/latest/docs/resources/user_runner would be perfect

apiVersion: users.gitlab.crossplane.io/v1alpha1
kind: Runner
metadata:
  name: my-runner
spec:
  forProvider:
    runnerType: instance_type
    description: "My fancy instance runner"
    # (etc..)
   providerConfigRef:
    name: gitlab-provider
  writeConnectionSecretToRef:
    name: my-runner-token
    namespace: crossplane-system

What do you think? (I'd be happy to contribute)
