fix: prevent skeleton route status entries for unmanaged GatewayClasses

When processing policies (EnvoyExtensionPolicy, SecurityPolicy), the translator
was calling GetRouteParentContext for ALL parentRefs in a route, even those
referencing gateways with different GatewayClasses not managed by this translator.

GetRouteParentContext creates a skeleton RouteParentStatus entry with just the
controllerName when called on a parentRef that hasn't been processed yet. Since
all GatewayClass instances share the same controller name, these skeleton entries
persisted in status without conditions.

The fix checks if a parentRef context already exists before attempting to apply
policy configuration to it. If the context doesn't exist, it means this parentRef
wasn't processed by this translator and should be skipped.
