pivot deployer to in-cluster concourse

What
Answer the following questions:
- Assuming a cluster has already been created, could the deployer pipeline (on BigConcourse) move itself into the in-cluster concourse.
- What would the impact be of letting the in-cluster concourse assume the deployer role (ie would it need it's own nodegroup?)
- Would this be preferable (security wise) than the BigConcourse?
- What happens when the deployer has to redeploy the node that the deploy job is running on (ie rolling the ci node group)?
- If rolling the ci node group causes problems, any ideas how to solve it?
Why
The big concourse is fast becoming an attractive target for a malicious actor as it is capable of assuming the "deployer" roles from each account (and deployer is basically admin since it need to do AllTheThings)

I'm closing this because it's old and I think we're broadly okay with the idea of Big Concourse™ currently.
