Provide CRD parameter to enable Connection Mirroring

Title

Provide parameter to enable Connection Mirroring in TransportServer CR

Description

Expose a new parameter in TransportServer (and potentially also VirtualServer) to enable Connection Mirroring

Actual Problem

Customer is deploying CIS instances for their new OCP Clusters, and looking to use TransportServer CR to front their TCP apps becauso of its simple YAML format. Due to the nature of the app traffic, connection mirroring is mandatory, but it doesn't seem to be configurable in TransportServer CR.

Solution Proposed

Expose a new parameter in TransportServer CR to enable Connection Mirroring, which is already supported by the underlying Service_TCP class in AS3.

Alternatives

Switching to AS3 ConfigMap, which is harder for the customer's team to understand & craft.

Additional context

Customer is considering other Ingress solution/vendor if the AS3 ConfigMap is rejected by their ops team.
