Adopt CAPI v1beta2 conditions

[adilGhaffarDev]

• The fields .status.failureMessage and .status.failureReason are being deprecated in Cluster API (CAPI). Refer to the related PR: #11317.

  • Remove capierrors (sigs.k8s.io/cluster-api/errors) from our implementation.
  • Define a custom error struct to handle similar functionality.
  • Consider completely removing .status.failureMessage and .status.failureReason and add conditions for these failures. Refer to the proposal for detailed information.

• Add API types to support compatibility between v1beta2 and v1beta1 status fields. Relevant PR: #11234

• Contract changes overview:
  • [InfrastructureCluster] (https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/cluster-api/blob/main/docs/proposals/20240916-improve-status-in-CAPI-resources.md#infrastructurecluster)
  • [InfrastructureMachine] (https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/cluster-api/blob/main/docs/proposals/20240916-improve-status-in-CAPI-resources.md#infrastructuremachine)

• CAPI introduces MachineReadinessGate in MachineSpec. This allows third-party controllers to add conditions.

  • Evaluate the potential use of MachineReadinessGate in the Metal3 (CAPM3) implementation.
  • Consider adding a Metal3MachineReadinessGate if there’s a clear use case.

• The output of kubectl get machines -o wide has been improved. For details, refer to Machine Print Columns.

  • Enhance the kubectl get m3m -o wide output for Metal3 resources to provide similar improvements.

Let's keep updating this as we get more information from the CAPI regarding contract changes.

TemplateReference field in Metal3DataTemplate doesn't seem to have any impact on any functionality. See PR for more indormation.

This field should be removed in v1beta2.
