Improve composite tool watch integration tests

jhrozek · jhrozek · commit 7974464e7da5 · 2025-11-17T22:16:49.000Z
Enhance integration tests for VirtualMCPCompositeToolDefinition watch
functionality to verify reconciliation actually occurs.

The original tests used Consistently to check ObservedGeneration stayed
current, but this couldn't distinguish between "reconciliation occurred
and completed" vs "no reconciliation was triggered". ResourceVersion
changes when the controller updates status during reconciliation,
providing definitive proof that the watch functionality works correctly.
