Stop reinventing the wheel with Istio

" summary

Installs via kubectl apply on a Kubernetes cluster (needs >=1.8, the demo uses ~4 VMs) and deploys Envoy sidecars so every pod gets a sidecar proxy; control plane components are Pilot (discovery/config), Mixer (policy/telemetry) and Citadel (certs, rotation). Demo deploys the Bookinfo app with three review versions, shows Prometheus/Grafana/Jaeger/service graph, does weighted routing (e.g. 99%/1% or 75%/25%), header-based pinning, and injects failures (e.g. 50% HTTP 400) and enables mutual TLS while exercising fault injection.
