Deploy sample apps

In order to try out the ambient mesh, deploy the Bookinfo app without sidecars.

Create the bookinfo namespace.
```
kubectl create ns bookinfo
```

Deploy the Bookinfo app.

# deploy bookinfo application components for all versions
kubectl -n bookinfo apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/istio/istio/1.18.2/samples/bookinfo/platform/kube/bookinfo.yaml -l 'app'
# deploy all bookinfo service accounts
kubectl -n bookinfo apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/istio/istio/1.18.2/samples/bookinfo/platform/kube/bookinfo.yaml -l 'account'

Verify that the Bookinfo app is deployed successfully.

kubectl get pods -n bookinfo
kubectl get svc -n bookinfo

Verify that you can access the ratings app from the product page app.

kubectl -n bookinfo debug -i pods/$(kubectl get pod -l app=productpage -A -o jsonpath='{.items[0].metadata.name}') --image=curlimages/curl -- curl -v http://ratings:9080/ratings/1
