IgnoreStatusChanges is an all-or-nothing toggle, it excludes the entire status from hash evaluation.
Sometimes it is needed to react to a specific field (e.g. status.readyReplicas) without being sensitive
to every other change on the object.
This PR adds a `WatchFields` field to TemplateResourceRef. When set, only the listed dot-separated field
paths (e.g. "status.readyReplicas", "metadata.labels") contribute to the hash. All other fields are ignored.
WatchFields takes precedence over IgnoreStatusChanges when both are set.
The feature applies to any field on the resource, not just status.
```yaml
templateResourceRefs:
- resource:
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
name: my-app
namespace: default
identifier: MyDeployment
watchFields:
- status.readyReplicas
- status.updatedReplicas
```
