Hey people! I am trying to install kong on my k8s cluster using helm, but I am having some permissions issue.

The error message is like the following:

```txt
Error: INSTALLATION FAILED: failed to install CRD crds/custom-resource-definitions.yaml: customresourcedefinitions.apiextensions.k8s.io is forbidden: User "<user>" cannot create resource "customresourcedefinitions" in API group "apiextensions.k8s.io" at the cluster scope: requires one of ["container.customResourceDefinitions.create"] permission(s).

```

I already created a cluster role like this:

```yaml

kind: ClusterRole
apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
metadata:
name: cr-editor
rules:
- apiGroups: ["apiextensions.k8s.io"]
resources: ["customresourcedefinitions"]
verbs: ["get", "list", "watch", "update", "patch", "create"]

```

But it not worked, somebody know what I am missing?
