Add ppc64le support

[raja-0940]

Description

Performed the code changes referring to Sneha's PR : #1236
We could see three differences.

• config/deploy/kubernetes/kubernetes-all.yaml   --> file is no longer present
• config/deploy/openshift/openshift-all.yaml   --> file is no longer present
• hack/make/go.mk   --> no longer having arch specific code

I think this is needed to fix a gofmt error:

Good news!

We are excited to merge this pull request based on an agreement between Dynatrace and IBM as follows:

• Dynatrace will publish Dynatrace Operator container images for ppc64le as part of our Github Actions release pipeline
• IBM will recommend a standard configuration to our joint customers as observed in ppc64le lab environments.
  • Dynatrace Classic Full-Stack
  • NodeJS, nginx, and Java applications running in glibc containers
  • Kubernetes API monitoring via Dynatrace ActiveGate on an x86 architecture
• Known issues with unique kubernetes node identification such that multiple nodes may appear as one.
• IBM will recommend specific versions of the Dynatrace Operator to joint customers after ppc64le images are made available in a public registry.
• The Dynatrace Operator team will collaborate with IBM, and joint customers, to bring OpenShift observability to ppc64le in the spirit of this partnership.

Customer support issues, involving the Dyantrace Operator, which cannot be reproduced by Dynatrace on x86 or ARM and are determined to be ppc64le should be directed to IBM at dt-operator@ibm.com
