Provide a means to reduce duplication in YAML templates. #1768

What would you like to be added: A means of reducing duplication in our YAML templates, perhaps with similar functionality that helm offers.

Why is this needed: We would like to avoid mistakes due to some cases of the duplication being changed but other cases being missed. Examples:

Many templates define identical labels (or at least they should :-)).
Different virtual services have the same redirect rules when in maintenance mode i.e. all redirect to a common maintenance page.
Different virtual services differ only by name and host.
etc.
