chore(main): release v1.21.0 (#806)

<!-- section-start changelog -->
### Feature Highlights &amp; Upgrade Notes

#### Load Balancer IPs set to Private IPs

If networking support is enabled, the load balancer IPs are now
populated with the private IPs, unless the
`load-balancer.hetzner.cloud/disable-private-ingress` annotation is set
to `true`. Please make sure that you configured the annotation according
to your needs, for example if you are using `external-dns`.

#### Provided-By Label

We introduced a the label `instance.hetzner.cloud/provided-by`, which
will be automatically added to all **new** nodes. This label can have
the values `cloud` or `robot` to distinguish between our products. We
use this label in the csi-driver to ensure the daemonset is only running
on cloud nodes. We recommend to add this label to your existing nodes
with the appropriate value.

- `kubectl label node $CLOUD_NODE_NAME
instance.hetzner.cloud/provided-by=cloud`
- `kubectl label node $ROBOT_NODE_NAME
instance.hetzner.cloud/provided-by=robot`

#### Load Balancer IPMode Proxy

Kubernetes KEP-1860 added a new field to the Load Balancer Service
Status that allows us to mark if the IP address we add should be
considered as a Proxy (always send traffic here) and VIP (allow
optimization by keeping the traffic in the cluster).

Previously Kubernetes considered all IPs as VIP, which caused issues
when when the PROXY protocol was in use. We have previously recommended
to use the annotation `load-balancer.hetzner.cloud/hostname` to
workaround this problem.

We now set the new field to `Proxy` if the PROXY protocol is active so
the issue should no longer appear. If you only added the
`load-balancer.hetzner.cloud/hostname` annotation for this problem, you
can remove it after upgrading.

### Features

- **service**: Specify private ip for loadbalancer (#724)
- add support &amp; tests for Kubernetes 1.31 (#747)
- **helm**: allow setting extra pod volumes via chart values  (#744)
- **instance**: add label to distinguish servers from Cloud and Robot
(#764)
- emit event when robot server name and node name mismatch (#773)
- **load-balancer**: Set IPMode to &#34;Proxy&#34; if load balancer is
configured to use proxy protocol (#727) (#783)
- **routes**: emit warning if cluster cidr is misconfigured (#793)
- **load-balancer**: ignore nodes that don&#39;t use known provider IDs
(#780)
- drop tests for kubernetes v1.27 and v1.28

### Bug Fixes

- populate ingress private ip when disable-private-ingress is false
(#715)
- wrong version logged on startup (#729)
- invalid characters in label instance-type of robot servers (#770)
- no events are emitted as broadcaster has no sink configured (#774)

### Kubernetes Support

This version was tested with Kubernetes 1.29 - 1.31. Furthermore, we
dropped v1.27 and v1.28 support.
