Description

Fresh user here!

I was reading the Using Pinniped for CI/CD cluster operations doc. It'd be great to expand this doc by providing some demo instructions about how can we use JWT Auth with GitLab to access kubeconfig from the pipeline.

As a reference, I can drop GitLab's Use HashiCorp Vault secrets in GitLab CI/CD and OpenID Connect (OIDC) Authentication Using ID Tokens docs.

Thanks.

Add a demo showing GitLab CI/CD JWT authentication obtaining kubeconfig for cluster operations, and verify that the instructions are complete and reproducible.
