We currently have different component repos:

• registration
• work
• placement
• registration-operator
• clusteradm
• addon-framework

It is hard to do e2e tests with many components and hard to do dependency check. I propose,we consolidate the code in these repos to one single repo:

• code in the work/registration/placement/operator/clusteradm component is merged into https://github.com/open-cluster-management-io/OCM
• split addon-framework to pure library code and addon-manager code. The addon-manager code is also put into https://github.com/open-cluster-management-io/OCM
• archive the the independent repo

After that we will have

• https://github.com/open-cluster-management-io/api
• https://github.com/open-cluster-management-io/OCM
• https://github.com/open-cluster-management-io/addon-framework (just library, remove unnecessary deps)

With this consolidation, we will have the benefit that

1. we do not need webhook per component, we can have one single webhook server
2. we can build hub and agent as one single binary
3. easier e2e testing
4. better understanding and dev experience for the contributor

note from @deads2k we should validate gates for PR that we do not have cross deps among different components.
