Aleksei Sviridkin 59731429a8 fix(vm-instance): let complete resources replace the instance type
KubeVirt refuses a VirtualMachine that carries an instancetype matcher and
explicit domain sizing at once. validateCPU in pkg/instancetype/apply
conflicts on domain.cpu.cores and domain.cpu.sockets when they are
non-zero, and validateMemory conflicts on
domain.resources.requests.memory whenever the key is present. The chart
rendered both, because the matcher keyed off instanceType while the
domain sizing keyed off resources, and neither side looked at the other.

values.yaml ships instanceType "u1.medium", so clearing that field in the
dashboard only falls back to the default. A user who then fills in cpu,
sockets and memory gets a VM the webhook rejects, with an error naming
fields the form gives them no way to clear.

Resources that size the VM completely now replace the matcher, the same
way the kubernetes-nodes chart sizes its worker VMs. Beside an instance
type, sizing that is only partial stops the render, because there is then
no safe reading: dropping the matcher would size the VM from fields the
user never finished, and keeping it either loses to the webhook or
silently discards what was typed. With no instance type in play there is
nothing to conflict with, so that half is left as it renders today.

Completeness is decided from what domainResources emitted, not from which
keys the user set, and the two readings come apart. resources.cpu on its
own emits nothing, so it conflicts with nothing and goes on rendering a
plain instancetype-sized VM. cpu and sockets pass through int64, which
yields 0 for a quantity the schema accepts, so a cpu of 500m beside a
whole sockets and a memory would read as complete from the values, drop
the matcher, and hand KubeVirt a cores of 0 the user never asked for. And
a resources block nulled outright leaves .Values.resources nil, where a
raw field read is a render-time nil pointer and the emitted object is
merely empty.

The existence check and the update hook read the same effective value.
Keying the lookup on the raw one would fail a resource-sized render over
an instance type it never references, which is the same confusing error
this fixes. Reading .Values in the hook would see the leftover
instanceType, skip the removal patch, and leave
spec.instancetype.revisionName on a VM Helm had just given explicit
domain resources.
