The linkerd multicluster link command should be used to retrieve the Link resource and the other associated resources (including those Secrets) to have multicluster communication properly work. I understand it's not always possible to plug a call to this command in all deployment pipelines, but the manifests to use should still be sourced from this command which provides the ultimate source of truth. So I don't see why we need to single out specific metadata that is already provided, and that is required just like many other pieces of metadata in other linkerd resources.
