[CONTINT-4918] Limit K8s event bundle messages by an estimated length

[triviajon]

What does this PR do?

This PR addresses a bug where the the message body of events are being truncated. Example here.

The way this is solved is by allowing an object to map to a list of bundles and estimating the size of the the message body as we add events to it. Once it reaches a threshold (conservatively set to 3750, as the limit on dogweb is 4000 characters), we create a new bundle.

Motivation

Describe how you validated your changes

Added unit tests TestKubernetesEventBundle_fitsEvent to pkg/collector/corechecks/cluster/kubernetesapiserver/kubernetes_eventbundle_test.go.

Explanation

Confidence level: 90.00%
Effect size tolerance: |Δ mean %| ≥ 5.00%

Performance changes are noted in the perf column of each table:

• ✅ = significantly better comparison variant performance
• ❌ = significantly worse comparison variant performance
• ➖ = no significant change in performance

A regression test is an A/B test of target performance in a repeatable rig, where "performance" is measured as "comparison variant minus baseline variant" for an optimization goal (e.g., ingress throughput). Due to intrinsic variability in measuring that goal, we can only estimate its mean value for each experiment; we report uncertainty in that value as a 90.00% confidence interval denoted "Δ mean % CI".

For each experiment, we decide whether a change in performance is a "regression" -- a change worth investigating further -- if all of the following criteria are true:

1. Its estimated |Δ mean %| ≥ 5.00%, indicating the change is big enough to merit a closer look.

2. Its 90.00% confidence interval "Δ mean % CI" does not contain zero, indicating that if our statistical model is accurate, there is at least a 90.00% chance there is a difference in performance between baseline and comparison variants.

3. Its configuration does not mark it "erratic".
