Using deployment.*.kubectl.patches with kustomize creating invalid YAML

[lizardruss]

What happened? When using kustomize in DevSpace, multiline strings in YAML can become incorrectly formatted, causing an error when applying the manifests.

What did you expect to happen instead? DevSpace should produce correctly formatted YAML.

How can we reproduce the bug? (as minimally and precisely as possible)

My devspace.yaml:

version: v2beta1
name: edgefarm-applications

pipelines:
  deploy-vela-core: |-
    #!/bin/bash
    set -e
    create_deployments vela-system

deployments:
  vela-system:
    kubectl:
      kustomize: true
      kustomizeArgs: ["--enable-helm"]
      manifests:
        - ./manifests/vela-system
    namespace: vela-system

manifests/vela-system/kustomization.yaml

resources:
  - namespace.yaml

helmCharts:
  - name: vela-core
    repo: https://charts.kubevela.net/core
    version: 1.8.0
    releaseName: vela-core
    namespace: vela-system
    includeCRDs: true

manifests/vela-system/namespace.yaml

apiVersion: v1
kind: Namespace
metadata:
  creationTimestamp: null
  name: vela-system
spec: {}
status: {}

Local Environment:

• DevSpace Version: [use devspace --version]
• Operating System: windows | linux | mac
• ARCH of the OS: AMD64 | ARM64 | i386 Kubernetes Cluster:
• Cloud Provider: google | aws | azure | other
• Kubernetes Version: [use kubectl version]

Anything else we need to know? kustomize renders the helm chart with a multiline string | getting converted to |2, which is correct. DevSpace then attempts to apply patches and marshals / unmarshals using gopkg.in/yaml.v3. This version of go-yaml converts to 4 spaces by default and incorrectly converts |2 to |4 (a bug), which is incorrect. kubectl then throws an error.

FWIW, kustomize created a fork to deal with the issue.
