cluster setup
```bash
ansible-pilot $ crc setup
CRC is constantly improving and we would like to know more about usage (more details at https://developers.redhat.com/article/tool-data-collection)
Your preference can be changed manually if desired using 'crc config set consent-telemetry '
Would you like to contribute anonymous usage statistics? [y/N]: y
Thanks for helping us! You can disable telemetry with the command 'crc config set consent-telemetry no'.
