resolves: #585
In an incremental scraper, we don't have the namespace object. Hence, resourceIDMap would be empty for all the namespaces.
If any namespaced object, like a Deployment, were to be scraped by the incremental scraper, we wouldn't be able to set the parent of that deployment because we don't know the id of the parent namespace.
In the workload cluster, the incremental scraper wasn't able to set the parent for a newly created cronjob so the saving of CronJob config failed. Consequently, saving of the job and also the pod would fail. This would happen until a full scrape.
The fix: use the Namespace config alias as the parent's external id.
