Description

User should be able to set custom annotations for the service set in the expose settings. This is useful for the expose loadbalancer settings to specify custom behaviour for the load balancer (setting IPs etc)

Contributor guide

Research direction
Inspect the current expose service configuration in the codebase (e.g., the LoadBalancer service creation) and identify where to add custom annotations. Look for existing annotation handling patterns and propose a way to pass user defined annotations from the expose settings into the generated service.
