Previously we refused to emit 'autoConvert_*' functions if any field was not
convertible. The way around this was to write manual Conversion functions, but
to do so safely you must handle every fields. Huge opportunity for errors.
This PR cleans up the filtering such that it only operates on types that should
be converted (remove a lot of code) and tracks when fields are skipped. In
that case, it emits an 'autoConvert' function but not a public 'Convert'
function. If there is no manual function, the compile will fail.
This also means that manual conversion functions can call autoConvert functions
and then "patch up" what they need.

federation: Adding namespaces API
Adding namespaces API to federation-apiserver and updating the federation client to include namespaces
--------------------------
Original description:
This adds the namespaces API to federation-apiserver.
The first commit is https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/26142.
This was removed by mistake in 9eb42f (PR #25978). Reverting some
of those changes and adding the new mechanism to autogenerate
conversions for the new types that we might define in this API
group in the future.
This drives most of the logic of deep-copy generation from tags like:
// +deepcopy-gen=package
..rather than hardcoded lists of packages. This will make it possible to
subsequently generate code ONLY for packages that need it *right now*, rather
than all of them always.
Also remove pkgs that really do not need deep-copies (no symbols used
anywhere).
