What this PR does / why we need it: Currently when wrong vsphere secret values are used, px fails to come up. But if the secret is updated, px still fails to come up as the old env variables are still mounted on the container. Solution is to restart all px pods when secret is changed. In the PR, operator keeps comparing the resource versions of the vsphere secret and when it changes, triggers the restart of px pods.
Which issue(s) this PR fixes (optional)
Closes # PWX-37844
Special notes for your reviewer: Everytime operator restarts, the older resource version becomes nil and the operator might assume the resource version has changed. To tackle this, the value of secret is first fetched when the operator is initialised. However there is an edge case where operator is restarting and secret gets updated then. Since operator takes 1second to restart this is a very rare occurance.
