Rework method of updating atomic-updated data volumes
**What this PR does / why we need it**:
This change affects the way that secret, configmap, downwardAPI and projected volumes (which all use the same underlying code) implement their data update functionality.
* Instead of creating a subdirectory hierarchy that will contain symlinks to each actual data file, create only symlinks to items in the root of the volume, whether they be files or directories.
* Rather than comparing the user-visible data directory to see if an update is needed, compare with the current version of the data directory.
* Fix data dir timestamp format year
* Create `..data` symlink even when a data volume has no data so consumers can have simplified update watch logic.
**Which issue(s) this PR fixes**:
Fixes#57421
**Release note**:
