✨ New Features

• [USER] Users with delete permissions can simply use kubectl delete node to delete backing Machine. node.machine.sapcloud.io/trigger-deletion-by-mcm annotation on Node no longer supported for indirect deletion of Machine by @gagan16k [#1055]

🐛 Bug Fixes

• [OPERATOR] Fixed spurious warning logs for machines without force-deletion label by @gagan16k [#1057]
• [OPERATOR] Made changes to reconcileClusterMachineTermination to avoid duplicate reconciliations by @r4mek [#1056]
• [OPERATOR] Updated machineclass reconciliation to avoid unnecessary machine requeues by @r4mek [#1056]

• [OPERATOR] The metric for the machine_current_status_phase has been fixed and is not reporting removed Machines anymore by @Duciwuci [#1058]
• [OPERATOR] Added a safeguard to delay deletion of machines that are undergoing a Create Request to prevent orphaning of VMs. by @takoverflow [#1036]
• [OPERATOR] Fixed an issue where deleting a machine from an old MachineSet could prevent proper scaling. The new MachineSet now scales up when total replicas (old + new) drop below the desired count, ensuring replacements are created with the updated configuration. by @acumino [#1052]
