Proposed changes
Problem: Controller-runtime forces a reconciliation after a certain amount of time, even if the resources have not changed (default is 10 hours. For many resources, we have a generation changed predicate, meaning we do not process any changes unless there is a change in the spec. Secrets, however, do not have a generation ID and so cannot have such a predicate.
Solution: Secrets do have a resource version, and the controller-runtime provides a ResourceVersionChangedPredicate we can use similarly to the GenerationChangedPredicate we use elsewhere.
Testing: Left running overnight and confirmed the behaviour (reconciliation of the secrets) no longer occurred.
Please focus on (optional): Please note that this approach does not introspect the cert and key for changes, and a reconciliation will still occur where the cert and key remains the same but a different property (e.g. an annotation) changes meaning the resource version will have changed.
Closes #1112
