Latch PreserveMembersOnSleep in Status.Observed.

During a 3→0 transition, a true-to-false edit after one member becomes dormant can make scaleDown delete another member and its PVC. This violates the locked-target behavior; documenting the live read would not prevent the deletion.

Add the flag to the observed snapshot and comparison, and use the observed value throughout the transition.

Review comment at @api/v1alpha2/etcdcluster_types.go around lines 467 - 472:
Latch PreserveMembersOnSleep in the observed status snapshot and include it in
the snapshot comparison; use that observed value throughout the scaleDown
transition instead of rereading the live spec, so edits during the transition
cannot change its behavior.

Restore quorum before resuming to a smaller target.

If three voters sleep with PreserveMembersOnSleep enabled and the target becomes one, the controller wakes only one voter. The other two remain dormant in etcd membership, so the waking voter cannot regain quorum. Reconciliation can reach DeadlineExceeded without making the cluster available. Handle the preserved membership before converging to the smaller target.

1324:
Update the preserved-members sleep-transition handling around
cluster.Status.Observed.Replicas and cluster.Spec.PreserveMembersOnSleep so
that, when a cluster with three preserved voters resumes to a target of one,
reconciliation wakes enough existing voters to restore etcd quorum before
converging to the smaller target. Keep the existing behavior for other
transitions unchanged.

review. Visit https://docs.coderabbit.ai/cli?utm_source=ghpr
