[BUG] ComponentDefinition status not updated to Available after installing Orchestrator addon

[weicao]

Describe the bug I encountered an issue while installing the orchestrator addon using Helm. Although the Helm installation completes successfully and the component instances are created, the ComponentDefinition status does not transition to Available. Controller logs reveal an error related to spec.configs[0].templateRef.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Add the kubeblocks Helm repository:

helm repo add kubeblocks https://charts.kubeblocks.io
helm repo update

2. Search for the orchestrator chart:

helm search repo kubeblocks/orchestrator --devel --versions

Output:

NAME                            CHART VERSION	APP VERSION	DESCRIPTION
kubeblocks/orchestrator        	1.0.0-alpha.0	3.2.6      	Orchestrator is a MySQL high availability and r...

3. Install the orchestrator addon:

helm install kb-addon-orc kubeblocks/orchestrator --namespace kb-system --create-namespace --version 1.0.0-alpha.0

Output:

NAME: kb-addon-orc

4. Check the Helm release list:

helm list -A

5. Check the ComponentDefinition resources:

kubectl get cmpd

Output:

NAME                                        SERVICE            SERVICE-VERSION   STATUS      AGE

Note: The STATUS field remains empty and does not transition to Available.

6. Inspect controller logs:
