Fixes #165
Copying the template from kubeconfig has security implications, as it also sets the certificates from kubeconfig that can be used as a fallback mechanism, if the bearer token is invalid.
We have to generate config from scratch by explicitly setting the required fields from kubeconfig, such as ca bundle, host, api path, qps, etc.
This PR generates derived config from scratch by setting the token manually, custom user-agent to be identified in the api server audit logs and required fields from kubeconfig.
Based on my tests, this works properly and expected.
