1. Proposed title of this feature request

Expose Upstream Version Metadata in LeaderWorkerSet

2. What is the nature and description of the request?

This RFE requests that the OpenShift Operator for LeaderWorkerSet expose standardized metadata, specifically their upstream component version.
This provides a consistent and programmatic way to identify the exact version of the upstream project being used.

3. Why does the customer need this? (List the business requirements here)

In OpenShift AI, the version of the component used is exposed as part of the RHOAI CRs status. It would probably be useful to have some similar mechanism for OpenShift operator that are provisioning additional components such as LeaderWorkerSet so that the RHOAI Operator can consume such information and report it to the users.

See:

• https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHOAISTRAT-327
• https://github.com/opendatahub-io/kueue/blob/stable-2.x/config/component_metadata.yaml

4. List any affected packages or components.
