Description

Some regions doesn't have metadata services support yet. We may want to implement logic that gets Linode metadata from APIv4 (the REST API) with an API token for labeling the node.

Research direction

Start by locating the existing metadata-reading and Kubernetes node-labeling entry points in the repository. Review how an APIv4 REST request would use an API token when regional metadata services are unavailable. Done means Linode metadata can be retrieved through APIv4 and used to label the node in unsupported regions, with the existing metadata path preserved where available.
