Save errors from reconciling and report it during artifact verification

[binbin-li]

What would you like to be added?

CR controllers adds the error messages to the CR status when the reconciling failed. However, artifact validation workflow will not catch the error during the reconciliation and return a general or even confusing error message to users.

One potential improvement is to save the error messages during reconciliation, then artifact validation could check those errors before calling the resources.

Another important consideration is that if a misconfigured CR has the same name as an existing one, we should not save the error but keep the original one. This follows our previous discussion that misconfigured CR should not override existing one. Therefore, we should only retain errors for new CRs with unique names.
