create an official buildkit-operator

Tell us about your request This video from 2021 documents the exact solution I'm looking for: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wTENRhYt3mw

Perhaps apple would be willing to donate to the open source community?

If they were, would it be welcomed? and become the official solution? I think it should be.

Which service(s) is this request for? buildkitd

Tell us about the problem you're trying to solve. What are you trying to do, and why is it hard? Deploy buildkitd via kubernetes and have it run exactly as everyone would want it to run.

Are you currently working around the issue? buildkitd is not being used because there is no helm chart, instead docker-dind is in use without the benefit of caching, as well as docker running on vms where caching is a requirement

Additional context Its tempting to write a buildkitd-operator, but I just have other things on my plate, it makes more sense to get it on the roadmap and let the experts write it. In the video the dev has created a new CRD along with an operator, docker could add the CRD as part of its standard deployment, along with an operator, and provide a helm chart to deploy it. There's no reason for every deployment of buildkitd to be a unique customized pet.
