feat(iam): own the ZITADEL core objects in GitOps

The chart declares its ServiceAccount, ConfigMap, Role and RoleBinding as
pre-install/pre-upgrade Helm hooks with hook-delete-policy before-hook-creation.
ArgoCD maps those to PreSync and prunes them when a sync ends, so every sync
deleted the ServiceAccount and ConfigMap the ZITADEL Deployment mounts. New pods
failed with `serviceaccount "zitadel" not found`, leaving the IdP one restart
from an outage.

Add a zatadel-core Application owning hook-free copies, keeping them as ordinary
desired state that survives every sync. Prune is off for this path: deleting a
ServiceAccount here would recreate the outage.

The ConfigMap also carries the notification settings, pointing
DefaultInstance.SMTPConfiguration at the smtp-gotify relay, with
SMTPSenderAddressMatchesInstanceDomain false because the sender
[email protected] differs from the instance domain zatadel.riotpiao.com.

Drop the envVarsSecret approach: ZITADEL created no SMTP provider from those env
vars (no instance.smtp.config.added event).
