Please provide a way to mount a Spring Cloud Config Server as a Kubernetes ConfigMap

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
No problem - quite the contrary: Spring Cloud Config Server works so well I'm trying to extend its reach!

Describe the solution you'd like
I'd love for some way - a controller or operator or CRD or something - for Kubernetes to be able to "see" a Spring Cloud Config Server instance as a ConfigMap so I don't have to read values from ConfigServer during CI build, then create a ConfigMap, then connect the app to the ConfigMap out of that. I want to cut out the middle process.

Describe alternatives you've considered
It's not impossible to get values from the Config Server to my Kubernetes apps, obviously. It's just less natural. And, also the easiest path right now only works for Spring Boot. With this approach, any app of any type (Python, Go, .NET, etc) would be able to see the configuration.

@ThomasVitale thanks for the offer. Internally we have some work being done in this space and want to see how that shakes out
