Get Kubernetes nodes and their labels

Why

If you're trying to target specific Nodes or are working with Node Feature Discovery, it's useful to see all the nodes labels in one go, formatted with = instead of JSON

How

kubectl get nodes -o go-template='{{range .items}}{{.metadata.name}}{{"\n"}}{{range $k,$v := .metadata.labels}}  {{$k}}={{$v}}{{"\n"}}{{end}}{{"\n"}}{{end}}'
