Now that we have basic Telemetry of a Gitpod instance, It would be really useful to understand
the environment in which the cluster is running to service the users better i.e writing better
docs, integrations, etc.
The platform/distribution is one such important data to understand where the users
are. The values could be gke, aks, eks, etc.
This also relates to #9075, so that we have a way
to separate the preview install's telemetry from others.
Describe the behaviour you'd like
Add a new platform attribute to the Gitpod telemetry. The identification can be
performed by using Replicated's distribution static function
To also accomodate the preview value, We can instead make this as a specific option
in config.go, and pass the right value during the render phase
Describe alternatives you've considered
