Feature Request: troubleshooting: gather system information and logs #163

Description

@holyspectral

Is your feature request related to a problem?

In order to analyze an issue efficiently without many back and forth, we should have a way for users to collect logs and information about the environment before creating an issue. For example, we would want the information from uname -a or bpftool feature to identify if a kernel is supported. We would want to know the flavour of kubernetes so we know if there is a known issue.

Solution you'd like

One approach is to let users run a few commands when creating an issue, e.g., uname -a. This can be useful in V1 but it doesn't scale as the list of command would grow.

Alternatives you've considered

For advanced usage, we can have a script like SUSE observability does, so it can grow as we need.

Alternatively, we can also have the functionality built in our container, for example, Tetragon's tetra CLI has tetra bugtool that can be used to gather these system information.
