Labeled selectors for watched resources #6871

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Currently, we can only watch resources in a given namespace or all the namespaces, regardless of the resources.

We would like to filter the resources by the label metadata available on those resources to reduce the number of watched resources that Gloo is watching.

Describe the solution you'd like

Would like to add the ability to add a labels field to allow for resources to be filtered to only watch those labels. We can use set based labels to filter the resources.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Other things to consider would be adding a GlobalLabels setting would apply to all watchedNamespaces, while each namespace would have its own Labels as well. This would provide a merging of the global and namespace watched labels.

Each Namespace would have the ability to ignoreGlobaLabels which would ignore any global label filters.

We could just use set-based labels only. And neglect equity based labels. Set based labels provided the same functionality as equity based, and there would be no need to support both.
