Take action for omitted fields needed for external name before the generation starts

[muvaf]

What problem are you facing?

ExternalName configuration has a field called OmittedFields that we use to remove the fields that are filled by external name, such as name or cluster_identifier. However, the deletion of those fields from schema happens in CRD generator so other tools who do look-ups in the schema may still see them. For example, example generator has to iterate over r.ExternalName.OmittedFields as well as schema to accurately check whether the field is still there.

How could Terrajet help solve your problem?

I haven't dug into it but we could somehow shift that deletion operation left and keep the schema as the single source of truth regarding what fields exist in the final object.
