Add backendRefs group and kind to httproute.yaml

[flipper]

When an HTTPRoute is created with an unset group, kind and weight, the fields are defaulted.

This causes tools like ArgoCD to detect a diff.

This PR sets the fields explicitly.

Merged as 9cd0e35, thank you.

I folded in one trivial fix on the way through: the added group: '' line carried a trailing tab character, which I stripped. Since the commit was rebased onto current master and squashed, the SHA changed and GitHub will not close this automatically, hence the manual close.
