The "tool" directive of Go 1.24 ensures that tools use dependencies compatible with other packages in the same module. This is perfect for generated code and CRDs based on Go structs. This also bumps controller-gen to v0.17.3.
This makes it slightly easier to clone the project and immediately run tests. One may continue to use pre-installed tools by calling Make targets with the ENVTEST and KUTTL variables.

Checklist:
Type of Changes:
What is the current behavior (link to any open issues here)?
Some Make targets download tools to
hack/toolswhile others expect them to be installed already.What is the new behavior (if this is a feature change)?
Run the tools for contributing code using
go runandgo tool. This reduces clutter in the project directory and lets Go cache and share these tools effectively across projects.
