What is the topic about?:

Currently, we use overlay networking in the local development setup. Now, that we soon have a cloud-controller-manager (see gardener/gardener#14415) we could also try to implement a route controller to enable native routing. This could be implemented by simply applying the corresponding routes directly on the nodes, but some care needs to be taken on the nodes of the kind cluster.

It would allow us to test certain scenarios in the local development setup, which we can currently only test in real shoot clusters, e.g. switch between native routing and overlay networking.
