[Backport 7.58.x] auto-instrumentation: increase default memory request to 100Mi
Backport 023ef5945eaed5aea081f20a7788a68c0107f816 from #29392.
What does this PR do?
Increases the default memory request for the auto instrumentation container from 20Mi to 100Mi.
100Mi is closer to the recommended minimum memory requirements for Alpine.
Motivation
https://datadoghq.atlassian.net/browse/APMON-1472
Right now the containers may get OOM Killed when copying lib injection files from the lib injection container to the application container. This memory usage comes from the cp command's usage of sendfile and is correlated to the total number of files being copied.
From @levan-m:
From my perspective, making this change in Agent is cleaner. Memory increase will be tied to a specific Agent version upgrade. On the other hand, Operator config may change while Agent version is pinned (or vice versa). This could create a situation where Operator overrides default value in future Agent versions, or sets higher limit on older installations which work fine with 20mb.

Before:
$ docker run -it --rm --memory=20Mib --memory-swap=20Mib -v "$(pwd):/out" gcr.io/datadoghq/dd-lib-python-init:2.12 /datadog-init/copy-lib.sh /out/
Killed
After:
$ docker run -it --rm --memory=100Mib --memory-swap=100Mib -v "$(pwd):/out" gcr.io/datadoghq/dd-lib-python-init:2.12 /datadog-init/copy-lib.sh /out/
This change can also be validated by manually updating the cluster agent configuation:

Explanation
A regression test is an A/B test of target performance in a repeatable rig, where "performance" is measured as "comparison variant minus baseline variant" for an optimization goal (e.g., ingress throughput). Due to intrinsic variability in measuring that goal, we can only estimate its mean value for each experiment; we report uncertainty in that value as a 90.00% confidence interval denoted "Δ mean % CI".
For each experiment, we decide whether a change in performance is a "regression" -- a change worth investigating further -- if all of the following criteria are true:
-
Its estimated |Δ mean %| ≥ 5.00%, indicating the change is big enough to merit a closer look.
-
Its 90.00% confidence interval "Δ mean % CI" does not contain zero, indicating that if our statistical model is accurate, there is at least a 90.00% chance there is a difference in performance between baseline and comparison variants.
-
Its configuration does not mark it "erratic".
