Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently, the only way to manage certificates for the webhooks is to install cert-manager in the cluster, or manually create certificates. Neither of these are ideal as one creates a dependancy on a third-party tool that many clusters may not have installed, and the other requires manual certificate generation and creation of resources by the operator.

Describe the solution you'd like
Implement cert-controller to manage certificates.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Using a more lightweight certificate management tool but this has the same issue as cert-manager

Research direction

Start by reviewing the repository's existing webhook certificate management and the linked cert-controller project. No files or tests are named, so identify the relevant controller entry points and current certificate resources first. Done means webhook certificates are managed by cert-controller without requiring cert-manager or manual certificate creation.
