This PR fixes a panic in the conversion webhook HTTP handler when no conversion request is sent by the client.

To avoid dereferencing a nil pointer when trying to access the UID, I set a default uid to an empty UID.
Let me know if I should return an HTTP Bad Request instead.

EDIT: Bad Request is returned when the conversion request is nil

Hi @Tomy2e. Thanks for your PR.

I'm waiting for a kubernetes-sigs member to verify that this patch is reasonable to test. If it is, they should reply with /ok-to-test on its own line. Until that is done, I will not automatically test new commits in this PR, but the usual testing commands by org members will still work. Regular contributors should join the org to skip this step.

Once the patch is verified, the new status will be reflected by the ok-to-test label.

I understand the commands that are listed here.

Instructions for interacting with me using PR comments are available here. If you have questions or suggestions related to my behavior, please file an issue against the kubernetes/test-infra repository.

Should this be an info instead of error?

I think Error should be used as we're logging an error message here. Also the documentation says "Info logs a non-error message with the given key/value pairs as context" so it may not be appropriate to use Info. What do you think?

Error seems okay to me. It definitely seems to fall in the same category as l.67

	if err != nil {
		log.Error(err, "failed to read conversion request")
		w.WriteHeader(http.StatusBadRequest)
		return
	}

Problem is that we're passing nil to log.Error which seems a bit backwards, let's either create an error, or spit out an Info as warning for users?

Maybe

    log.Error(errors.New("conversion request is nil"), "failed to handle conversion request")

?

Still feels a bit strange, but maybe better than logging one error as an error and the other as info

I don't see any issue with err being nil, the docs clearly say this is ok (https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/go-logr/logr#Logger.Error and https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/controller-runtime/blob/master/TMP-LOGGING.md#logging-errors).

Also, there are already many instances of Error being called with a nil error in this repo (https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/controller-runtime/search?q=log.Error%28nil)

We went through multiple logger iterations before we got here, but anyways, that's fine if we want to log Error
