Ensure that upstream configuration is properly normalized. (#19076)

This PR fixes an issue where upstreams did not correctly inherit the proper
namespace / partition from the parent service when attempting to fetch the
upstream protocol due to inconsistent normalization.

Some of the merge-service-configuration logic would normalize to default, while
some of the proxycfg logic would normalize to match the parent service. Due to
this mismatch in logic, an incorrect service-defaults configuration entry would
be fetched and have its protocol applied to the upstream.

+connect: **(Enterprise only)** Fix bug where incorrect service-defaults entries were fetched to determine an upstream's protocol whenever the upstream did not explicitly define the namespace / partition. When this bug occurs, upstreams would use the protocol from a service-default entry in the default namespace / partition, rather than their own namespace / partition.
