Add Option to Patch Status Subresource Field with Collection

[neevnuv]

SUMMARY

Feature Request -
Add an option to one of the collection to allow us to run a command to patch the status field of a resource. Using the CLI it is possible by running: kubectl patch MyCrd myresource --type=merge --subresource status --patch '{"status": {...}}'.

At this moment we use the builtin command module to do so.
