Runners are assigned invalid tokens making them unusable in Kubernetes
Summary
Gitlab consistently generates a syntactically invalid Runner token, such as _7jrqB-n, WXgoKxys, or isWPAmQU, making them unusable in Kubernetes
Steps to reproduce
Create a new runner and observe runner token

What is the current bug behavior?
Runners are assigned tokens that have capital letters and other symbols, leading to an error when the runner is to be used:
ERROR: Job failed (system failure): Secret "runner-isWPAmQU-project-82-concurrent-0jmxnf" is invalid: [metadata.generateName: Invalid value: "runner-isWPAmQU-project-82-concurrent-0": a DNS-1123 subdomain must consist of lower case alphanumeric characters, '-' or '.', and must start and end with an alphanumeric character (e.g. 'example.com', regex used for validation is '[a-z0-9]([-a-z0-9]*[a-z0-9])?(\.[a-z0-9]([-a-z0-9]*[a-z0-9])?)*'), metadata.name: Invalid value: "runner-isWPAmQU-project-82-concurrent-0jmxnf": a DNS-1123 subdomain must consist of lower case alphanumeric characters, '-' or '.', and must start and end with an alphanumeric character (e.g. 'example.com', regex used for validation is '[a-z0-9]([-a-z0-9]*[a-z0-9])?(\.[a-z0-9]([-a-z0-9]*[a-z0-9])?)*')]What is the expected correct behavior?
Runners are assigned tokens matching the regular expression above ([a-z0-9]([-a-z0-9]*[a-z0-9])?(\.[a-z0-9]([-a-z0-9]*[a-z0-9])?)*)
