Proposed commit message
Use metadata watchers for ReplicaSets in components that need them. The only data we need from ReplicaSets are their name and OwnerReferences, which are used to connect Pods to Deployments and DaemonSets.

.How to test this PR locally
You need a full K8s cluster, unfortunately. I've tested it using the default elastic-agent standalone manifest, by building a custom container image and loading it into a local kind cluster.
