Hello :wave:

What is the right way to set Pod labels inside Job template?

Have tried
```from prefect.infrastructure.kubernetes import KubernetesJob
job = KubernetesJob()
job.customizations = jsonpatch.JsonPatch([

    {
        'op': 'add',
        'path': '/spec/template/metadata/labels',
        'value': {
            '<http://app.kubernetes.io/instance|app.kubernetes.io/instance>': 'prefect-agent'
        }
    }
])
...```
But all I got was:
```jsonpointer.JsonPointerException: member 'metadata' not found in {'spec': {'containers': [{'env': [{'name': .....```

Should it be something like:
```    {
        'op': 'add',
        'path': '/spec/template',
        'value': { 
            'metadata': {
                'labels': {
                    '<http://app.kubernetes.io/instance|app.kubernetes.io/instance>': 'prefect-agent'
                }
            }
        }
    }```
Or there is more elegant solution?

In case you are still stuck, maybe this helps <https://discourse.prefect.io/t/use-aks-workload-identity/3354|https://discourse.prefect.io/t/use-aks-workload-identity/3354>? I have been able to add labels to my prefect flow pods using this. The code for the job template is almost at the end of the writeup.

Actually made a bit of another move.
Patching (customizing) won’t work since the item is not created.
So I rewrote the whole base job manifest with `job.job` object

Worked for me..
