Description

Hello VTOp folks

I need to be able to set the path style / ability to skip ssl verify for the vtbackup-init container, right now I believe that the flags are hard coded and not able to customize.

https://vitess.slack.com/archives/C8V721QN8/p1663187190429969

this slack thread has more details.

  1. is there a way to add custom flags?
  2. if not, could this be an official request to give the ability to add extraFlags?

Research direction

Start by tracing where the vtbackup-init container's flags are configured and how operator settings reach that container. Check the existing configuration and the linked Slack discussion for the expected path-style and SSL-verification behavior; done means users can provide extra flags, including those options, without hard-coded changes.
