## Overview
Starting from version **0.8.0**, the plugin-barman-cloud deployment manifests use more specific, prefixed resource names
to avoid conflicts with other components deployed in the same Kubernetes cluster.

## Why This Change?
Using generic names for cluster-wide resources is discouraged as they may conflict with other components deployed in

**Before deleting each resource, verify it belongs to the Barman Cloud plugin
by checking:**
- For `objectstore-*` roles: Look for `barmancloud.cnpg.io` in the API groups
- For `metrics-*` roles: Check if they reference the `plugin-barman-cloud` ServiceAccount in `cnpg-system` namespace
- For `metrics-*` roles: Check if they reference the `plugin-barman-cloud`
ServiceAccount in `cnpg-system` namespace
- For other roles: Look for labels like `app.kubernetes.io/name: plugin-barman-cloud`
If a resource doesn't have these indicators, **DO NOT DELETE IT** as it may belong to another application.

You can add `--dry-run=client` to any `kubectl delete` command to preview what would be deleted without actually
removing anything.

kubectl describe clusterrolebinding metrics-auth-rolebinding
# If it references plugin-barman-cloud ServiceAccount in cnpg-system namespace, delete it:

# Look for references to authentication.k8s.io and authorization.k8s.io
kubectl describe clusterrole metrics-auth-role
# Verify it's not being used by any other rolebindings:
kubectl get clusterrolebinding -o json | jq -r '.items[] | select(.roleRef.name=="metrics-auth-role") | .metadata.name'
# If the above returns nothing (role is not in use) and the role looks like the barman one, delete it (see warnings section):

# If the above returns nothing (role is not in use) and the role looks like the
# Barman Cloud one, delete it (see warnings section):

# If this shows ANY rolebindings, review them carefully. Only proceed if they're all barman-related.

The `metrics-reader` role is particularly dangerous to delete blindly. Many
monitoring systems use this exact name. Only delete it if:
1. You've verified it ONLY grants access to `/metrics`
2. No other rolebindings reference it (checked with the jq command above)
3. You're certain it was created by the Barman Cloud plugin
If you're unsure, it's safer to leave it and let the new `barman-plugin-metrics-reader` role coexist with it.

## Impact
- **Permissions:** If you have custom RBAC rules or tools that reference the old resource names, they will need to be updated.
- **External Users:** If end users have been granted the `objectstore-viewer-role` or `objectstore-editor-role`, they will need to be re-granted the new role names (`barman-plugin-objectstore-viewer-role` and `barman-plugin-objectstore-editor-role`).
