UI missing policies on Kubernetes roles

[MarkRx]

The UI does not currently provide a way to view or modify policies on a Kubernetes role. It only seems to provide a way to configure token policies. It currently must be done through either the API or the vault client.

The UI should be updated to support policies on Kubernetes roles in order to be more user friendly.

Thanks @MarkRx! Transferring over the the vault repo since that's where the UI lives.

@MarkRx I'm looking into this and is the missing param on the UI form policies? The API description is the exact same for both policies and token_policies so I want to make sure I'm looking at the correct missing param. Thanks for making the Issue.

Hi @MarkRx - checking in with this as we're still awaiting your feedback from @Monkeychip's comment. Thanks!

Oh you know what, I think policies is deprecated in favor of token_policies:

https://github.com/hashicorp/vault-plugin-auth-kubernetes/blob/530b5e913097cf7eea6ff1e2d7b977dd3dba2a16/path_role.go#L65-L69

We should probably mark it as deprecated in the docs too.

Thank you for this note Theron! @yhyakuna I will assign this to you, if you don't mind. Thank you!

The docs has been updated.
