Support KubeRay in MultiKueue via managedBy

[mimowo]

What would you like to be added:

Support for KubeRay via managedBy in MultiKueue.

The relevant support for the managedBy field has been recently merged in KubeRay, see ray-project/kuberay#2544, and will be released most likely in 1.3.
Until then we can use the main branch of kuberay in Kueue to test it all works. Once KubeRay is released we can switch to the released version and merge to Kueue.

Why is this needed:

Support of KubeRay via managedBy in MultiKueue, allowing for:

• ease of setup where full KubeRay can be installed on the management cluster (not just CRDs)
• hybrid deployments, where some RayJobs are executed via MultiKueue and some locally on the management cluster

This ticket requires to first provide RayJob and RayCluster Multikueue adapter and setup e2e tests,
as we don't have them yet.
First PR will be about adapter and multikueue e2e tests with ray-operator v1.2.2- no managedBy yet, as this requires latest.
Second PR will be the attempt to work with ray-operator latest and use of managedBy.

[mimowo]

sgtm, we can start with tests using 1.2.2 but without managedBy field and merge it as a starter. Or alternatively already use latest (main) of KubeRay just for testing purposes - we will merge once KubeRay is released.

Another problem that I have right now is that Kuberay clusters startup time is huge for e2e tests.
It's about 5 minutes, maybe it's due to requirement to use rayproject image, but setting anything else as image results in job to stall at initialisation.
Normally we use sleep image just to call anything, but it won't work with ray cluster.

[mimowo]

Ok, in that case we may need to have a separate CI for Ray.

However, let me first understand what you exactly mean by "cluster startup time" - is this the installation of the KubeRay, or time to run the first RayJob? Does it also take long to run follow-up Jobs?

Also, please make sure you are rebased against the main branch, because recently we increased CPU limits for Kueue to 2000m which might be relevant here too.

Normally we use sleep image just to call anything, but it won't work with ray cluster.

It may be possible to construct a dummy RayCluster that just calls sleep with a lighter image, but I haven't tried this myself. Assuming the start-up time issue is due to pulling the default Ray images

thank you @andrewsykim for the suggestion. @mszadkow can we try that? maybe you already did and hit some complications?
