refactor(kamelet): update Kamelet structure to use route.from instead of from

[lordrip]

Context

Kamelets support both route.from and from definitions. At the moment, Kaoto supports from only, leaving other types of Kamelet without support.

This commit reads both Kamelet's type but serializes it to the more expressive one to keep backward compatibility

fixes: #3839

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Updates
  • Kamelet route definitions are now represented under template.route, with the source route available at template.route.from.
  • Kamelet parsing, serialization, visualization, editing, and component compatibility checks now use the updated route structure.
  • Existing route content and metadata remain unchanged; only the template nesting has been updated.
  • Kamelet-related fixtures and validation coverage have been aligned with the revised structure.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Kamelet support now accepts both template.from and template.route.from formats. Visual entities normalize both forms to template.route.from. Serialization, parsing, filtering, Cypress assertions, and fixtures use the nested route structure.

Changes

Kamelet route format support

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Route contract and serialization packages/ui/src/models/camel/kamelets-catalog.ts, packages/ui/src/models/camel/kamelet-resource.ts, packages/ui/src/models/camel/kamelet-resource.test.ts	IKameletSpec.template now requires route and makes from optional. KameletResource.toJSON() serializes the flow under spec.template.route.
Visual entity route normalization packages/ui/src/models/visualization/flows/kamelet-visual-entity.ts, packages/ui/src/models/visualization/flows/abstract-camel-visual-entity.ts, packages/ui/src/models/visualization/flows/kamelet-visual-entity.test.ts	KameletVisualEntity accepts both source formats, normalizes them to template.route.from, and updates root paths, step insertion, URI lookup, and drag handling.
Route path integrations and validation packages/ui/src/services/parsers/kamelet-parser.ts, packages/ui/src/models/visualization/flows/support/*, packages/ui-tests/cypress/e2e/designer/*, packages/ui-tests/cypress/fixtures/flows/kamelet/basic.yaml, packages/ui/src/utils/*kamelet*.test.ts	The parser and component filters use template.route.from. Fixtures and end-to-end assertions use nested route paths.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to a4ec3

Kamelets may use either shorthand or nested route definitions, but a regression in shorthand root URI display could pass the current test suite. Add a genuine shorthand fixture before merging.

Poem

A rabbit checks the route shape today
Direct and nested forms both find their way
The visual source moves under route
Tests trace each updated path throughout
YAML hops with structure in place

Use normalized paths in the remaining Kamelet cases.

This changed case uses template.route.from, but later Kamelet cases still use template.from... at Line 363, Line 390, Line 411, Line 430, and Line 455. Those tests do not exercise the normalized child-path contract. Update them to template.route.from.... Keep a separate direct-format case only where backward compatibility is intentional.

[PVinaches]

Just a couple of questions:

1. While not changing Kamelet from the integration selector, if we delete the kamelet. It creates a new one with the new template (route from). But if the user is in Route YAML and changes to Kamelet, the template is still in the less expressive format (from). Is that the intended behaviour?
2. As we are now supporting both types of templates, shouldn't we have an e2e test similar to the one we have for yaml and xml (camelRouteRoundTrip.cy.ts) to ensure it doesn't break the compatibility at any point?
