Fix Watch.Response deserialization to preserve DynamicKubernetesObject raw data

[Copilot]

Watch.Response objects were not preserving the raw JSON data for DynamicKubernetesObject instances. The issue affected all event types (ADDED, MODIFIED, DELETED), despite the original report focusing on ADDED.

Root Cause

Watch.parseLine() called json.deserialize(), which uses the global static GSON instance. DynamicKubernetesApi registers DynamicKubernetesTypeAdaptorFactory on its ApiClient's GSON instance, but Watch wasn't using it.

Changes

• Watch.java: Changed parseLine() to call json.getGson().fromJson() directly instead of json.deserialize(), ensuring it uses the ApiClient-configured GSON instance with registered TypeAdapters
• WatchDynamicObjectTest.java: Added tests verifying raw data preservation for DynamicKubernetesObject

Example

// After fix, raw JSON is properly preserved
DynamicKubernetesApi api = new DynamicKubernetesApi(...);
Watchable<DynamicKubernetesObject> watch = api.watch(namespace);

for (Watch.Response<DynamicKubernetesObject> event : watch) {
  // event.object.getRaw() now contains full JSON including spec, status, etc.
  JsonObject raw = event.object.getRaw();
  System.out.println(raw.get("spec"));  // Works for all event types
}

<issue_title>Watch.Response with type ADDED does not provide object's data</issue_title> <issue_description>Describe the bug

If the response received from calling GenericKubernetesApi.watch has type "ADDED", the KubernetesObject in object has only metadata. raw is empty (null). (The object's raw data is provided for type "MODIFIED")

Client Version v19

Java Version Java 17

To Reproduce Call the method, add a Kubernetes object, look at the result.

Expected behavior The (raw) data should be provided. </issue_description>
