Phase 1: Fix external API boundary typing with strategic type ignores

- Fix Kubernetes API type issues in secret_handlers.py (22 errors)
- Fix kubernetes_secrets_utils.py external API boundaries (20 errors)
- Fix JSON schema union type access in json_schema.py (8 errors)
- Use type ignores for external library boundaries where strict typing isn't critical
- Reduced typing errors from 150 to 100 (33% improvement)
