The tunnel protocol just prepends a fixed size header to data stream coming from regular network filter to the upstream network filter, followed by the peer metadatra encoded as protobuf Any containing a protobuf Struct inside (I'm just re-using existing code from Istio proxy, that's why encoding is such as it is). The regular network filter only triggers when there is some data coming from upstream connection in response. It's not correct in general, but in waypoints we do know that we proxy an L7 protocol (http or gRPC), so we do expect a some data in reply. The regular network filter relies on TCP Proxy filter extracting response headers and saving them in the filter state. It then extracts and parses the baggage header from the saved headers. In all cases I explicitly communicate when no peer metadata has been discovered by sending some data downstream. This ensures that upstream network filter running downstream can always remove the prefix from the data stream and does not really need to guess if it's there or not. NOTE: We still do some checks to confirm that the prefix is there, but we cannot really rely on those checks for correctness in all the cases. The upstream network filter, as pointed out above, extracts the data sent by the regular network filter from the data stream, it parses the data and populates filter state based on that. Unlike the HTTP peer metadata filter, this one runs in the context of the upstream connection, so it populates the upstream filter state and not the regular one. I plan to add support to the HTTP peer metadata filter option for new upstream metadata discovery via upstream filter metadata, thus propagating it all the way to the istio stats filter. NOTE: None of those filters are yet generated by pilot and there are certainly some additional options to configure (e.g., maybe we can come up with a good way to transfer metadata via Envoy TLS instead of injecting it into the data stream directly - this way, in principle, we could avoid creating a custom upstream filter all together, if http peer metadata filter could get the peer metadata directly from connect_originate listener). All-in-all, it's not the final implementation.

In fact, canonical name of the workload and app in ambient are the same thing, that's why baggage does not actually need an app label - it already has service.name that encodes what we need. I updated the design document, but it happened after I mentioned here and there that we need to add a missing field to the baggage. This change corrects implementation and that makes istio stats populate the app label correctly. The other field that has not been populated is principal. WorkloadMetadataObject contained that identity field that contained principle in principle, but the methods used to conver WorkloadMetadataObject to a protobuf Struct and back ignored that field and never populated it, so it got lost and istio stats never used it. We haven't noticed that before because in ambient we used xDS-based peer metadata discovery by default and it triggers a different code path that does not rely on the methods that convert protobuf Struct to WorkloadMetadataObject, and the code path used there didn't have the same issue.

All-in-all, under normal circumstances in the baggage we will only have service; if app is different from the service - we will add it to the baggage as well; and when parsing baggage we will use either service or app, depending on what is provided.

What this PR does / why we need it:
This adds an e2e test for new proxy filters that verifies both baggage propagation as well as metrics that stats filter will generate.
I also made some changes to how we parse and generate baggage header. Basically, WorkloadMetadataObject supports cases where app and service might have different values. In xDS-based metadata discovery implementation however app is always derived from the service name, at least in ztunnel.
So there is a bit of a mismatch there.
