- Enable VMAgent (was disabled → no metrics scraped)
- Remove disable_login from Grafana config; add security block so operator can auth via API

Pre-upgrade cleanup hook uses bitnami/kubectl and spawns on every ArgoCD
sync. Dev cluster nodes are at 99% CPU / pod limit — hook pod cannot be
scheduled, blocking the entire sync indefinitely.
Disabling cleanup.enabled prevents the hook Job from being created.
CRD cleanup is safe to skip on a fresh bootstrap where no old CRDs exist.
