• [OPERATOR] Prevent gardener-controller-manager from "piling up" a high amount of shoot reconciliations until the next restart because of updated AuditPolicy ConfigMaps. (gardener/gardener#5406, @timebertt)
• [OPERATOR] Deletion of Shoot is no longer wrongly blocked because of Bastion in the same Project that is not related to this Shoot. (gardener/gardener#5371, @ialidzhikov)
