Prevent all Gitaly pods from restarting when replicas are changed
What does this MR do?
This prevents all Gitaly pods from restarting unnecessarily when changing the number of gitalyReplicas
.
It accomplishes this by skipping the section of the ConfigMap that varies based on the number of replicas when computing the SHA of the ConfigMap for the Gitaly StatefulSet. This way, scaling the replicas up or down will not modify the ConfigMap, and the StatefulSet can simply bring up only the new pods (or terminate the unneeded ones) without the existing, desired pods restarting.
