AuthorizationPolicies may have HTTPRoutes as targetRefs. However, the validation admission controller webhook for AuthorizationPolicies rejects any which have a httproutes.gateway.networking.k8s.io target (as opposed to httproutes.policy.linkerd.io which are accepted).

We allow httproutes.gateway.networking.k8s.io as a target ref by removing this overly restrictive validation. This validation was, in fact, completely redundant since the target type is checked during conversion and validated that it is a supported target (including httproutes.gateway.networking.k8s.io).

Validated by running through https://linkerd.io/2-edge/tasks/configuring-per-route-policy/ and replacing the httproutes.policy.linkerd.io with httproutes.gateway.networking.io (including targetRefs).

Can you please point where this conversion is performed?
