Description

One would be forced to first kubectl config use-context <context> to switch to the desired context if working with multiple K8S clusters or having multiple K8S "users" for interacting with the specified cluster,  so it is an important improvement to add an option(kubernetes.context) for configuring arbitrary contexts when deploying a Flink cluster. If that option is not specified, then the current context in the config file would be used.
