Add support for secret renewal

[mcavoyk]

Add field to ExternalSecret to control refresh period rather than relying on occasional controller resyncs.

Current design is to add the field refreshInterval of type time.Duration.

Hi @mcavoyk , is the current controller still does not support reconciling the secrets if updated in the backend ? any workarounds for that other than recreating the externalSecret resource ?

This field is not currently supported, but all ExternalSecrets will be refreshed every controller resync period (~10 hours). If more immediate refresh is needed, right now the way to do that would be edit an annotation the ES which will cause the secret-manager to reconcile the secret and refresh the contents.
