Fixed creating clusters in different namespaces when pivoting

There was a bug that prevented pivoting because a desired namespace was specified
in the cluster.yaml file.  It needs to ensure the the namespace on the target
cluster before pivoting.  Also, ensuring namespace after getting the target cluster
kubeconfig requires a loop with exp backoff in some environments.

Fixes #735
