Issue:
proxyServiceCluster and oidc miss metadata
*Description*:
>What issue is being seen? Describe what should be happening instead of
the bug, for example: The expected value isn't returned, etc.

Currently, we have designed the metadata for the clusters; however, some clusters are missing metadata.

The consumer can use the metadata to create custom logic, similar to httproute's metadata. 

cc @zirain 

*Repro steps*:
> Include sample requests, environment, etc. All data and inputs
required to reproduce the bug.

>**Note**: If there are privacy concerns, sanitize the data prior to
sharing.

*Environment*:
>Include the environment like gateway version, envoy version and so on.

*Logs*:
>Include the access logs and the Envoy logs.
