Support for Annotation Generator Options in Go Plugins

[devstein]

Hey All! I maintain a kustomize Go Plugin for SOPS encoded resources, called KSOPS, and one point of confusion/feature request I kept receiving was matching the behavior annotations supported implicitly by exec plugins. I ended up adding the same implicit support for these annotations by copying the UpdateResourceOptions code from the exec plugin.

1. Is there a reason that exec plugins support this behavior out-of-the-box but Go plugins require explicit calls to ResmapFactory().FromConfigMapArgs or ResmapFactory().FromSecretArgs? Or to support annotations, copying the UpdateResourceOptions as I did

2. Does it make sense to make UpdateResourceOptions a public plugin helper? Or support annotations implicitly for all Go plugins?

Thanks for the input! Happy to contribute if this makes sense.
