🐛 Cluster should be provisoned when cpRef and endpoint is set

We're currently treating the infrastructureRef as almost a requirement,
which in fact isn't and it's an optional reference.

If the Cluster control plane reference is populated, the endpoint is
valid, and the control plane is ready, set the phase to provisioned
