kongctl Release Highlights

v1.4.1 is a maintenance-focused release that sharpens Event Gateway
handling, reduces noisy declarative diffs, and makes E2E-required status reporting
easier to follow.

✨ What's New

• Event Gateway declarative flows now handle external parents and nested virtual
  clusters more safely, so child resources can be planned without trying to manage
  external ancestors (#1492).
• Dump and diff coverage grew across Event Gateway policies, data-plane certificates,
  and virtual-cluster checks, which helps catch export and round-trip regressions
  earlier (#1463, #1468,
  #1469).

🐛 Fixes & Improvements

• Declarative planning now avoids spurious updates for schema-registry references in
  produce policies, and child deletes preserve namespace context
  (#1464, #1477).
• Pending and conflicted E2E-required statuses now point at the right checks, making
  blocked PRs easier to diagnose (#1476,
  #1478).
• Release automation picked up a stable ad-hoc prerelease channel and refreshed
  supporting dependencies (#1471, #1455,
  #1475).
