Update Kubernetes best practice docs (#16807)

- Remove example YAML file from docs to deduplicate
- Update "Prepare a new version of Fleet" handbook instructions to point
to the best practice YAML
- Add README to point to docs
- Move tools for deploying Fleet on Kubernetes to `Deploy/` folder.
- Add @dherder as CODEOWNER so that Dave gets pinged every time a
contributor wants to make a change to the Kubernetes

We will assume you have `kubectl` and MySQL and Redis are all set up and running. Optionally you have minikube to test your deployment locally on your machine.
To deploy the Fleet server and connect to its dependencies(MySQL and Redis), we will set up a `deployment.yml` file with the following specifications:

Notice we are using secrets to pass in values for Fleet's dependencies' environment variables.
To deploy the Fleet server and connect to its dependencies (MySQL and Redis), we will use [Fleet's best practice `fleet-deployment.yml` file](https://github.com/fleetdm/fleet/blob/main/docs/Deploy/Deploy-Fleet-on-Kubernetes.md).
Let's tell Kubernetes to create the cluster by running the below command.
`kubectl apply -f ./deployment.yml`
`kubectl apply -f ./fleet-deployment.yml`

The last step is to run the Fleet database migrations on your new MySQL server. To do this, run the following:
```sh
kubectl create -f ./docs/Using-Fleet/configuration-files/kubernetes/fleet-migrations.yml
kubectl create -f ./docs/Deploy/kubernetes/fleet-migrations.yml
```
In Kubernetes, you can only run a job once. If you'd like to run it again (i.e.: you'd like to run the migrations again using the same file), you must delete the job before re-creating it. To delete the job and re-run it, you can run the following commands:
```sh
kubectl delete -f ./docs/Using-Fleet/configuration-files/kubernetes/fleet-migrations.yml
kubectl create -f ./docs/Using-Fleet/configuration-files/kubernetes/fleet-migrations.yml
kubectl delete -f ./docs/Deploy/kubernetes/fleet-migrations.yml

First we must deploy the instances of the Fleet webserver. The Fleet webserver is described using a Kubernetes deployment object. To create this deployment, run the following:
```sh
kubectl apply -f ./docs/Using-Fleet/configuration-files/kubernetes/fleet-deployment.yml

Now that the Fleet server is running on our cluster, we have to expose the Fleet webservers to the internet via a load balancer. To create a Kubernetes `Service` of type `LoadBalancer`, run the following:
```sh
kubectl apply -f ./docs/Using-Fleet/configuration-files/kubernetes/fleet-service.yml
kubectl apply -f ./docs/Deploy/fleet-service.yml
```
