OCPBUGS-104856: clear unmanaged-route metric when the route is removed

[jcmoraisjr]

The unmanaged_owner gauge is a GaugeVec keyed by route name/namespace/ host; Collect() only iterates routes that currently exist in the lister cache, so a route that's deleted left its last-known value stuck in the gauge forever, keeping any alert based on it firing even after the unmanaged route itself was gone.

This update tracks the set of routes flagged unmanaged on each Collect and zero out any that drop out of that set on the next pass. Guard the tracked set with a mutex since concurrent scrapes can call Collect() at the same time.

Walkthrough

The ingress controller now tracks unmanaged route metric labels across collection cycles. It clears metrics for removed routes and changed hosts. Tests cover repeated scrapes and the internal reset method.

Changes

Unmanaged route metric lifecycle

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Metric tracking and stale-label cleanup pkg/route/ingress/ingress.go, pkg/route/ingress/metrics.go	The controller tracks unmanaged route name, namespace, and host labels. Collection clears stale metrics and updates the tracked set. Ingress deletion calls the unexported reset method.
Metric cleanup regression coverage pkg/route/ingress/metrics_test.go	Tests reuse unmanaged-resource fixtures and validate metric cleanup after route removal, host changes, repeated scrapes, and explicit reset calls.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 6111c

Concurrent scrapes can race while updating unmanaged-route metrics, potentially restoring stale values and causing alerts to remain incorrect. The PR should serialize these updates before merge.

80-112: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Serialize unmanaged-route metric updates across scrapes.

Prometheus can invoke Collect concurrently. Since flaggedUnmanagedRoutesLock is acquired only in resetUnusedUnmanagedRoutesMetrics, an older scrape can overwrite a newer route value or tracked-route set. Hold the lock across unmanaged-route metric writes, stale-series cleanup, tracked-set replacement, and unmanagedRoutes.Collect(ch). Make the helper require that lock, or rename it to show this requirement.
