Description
This PR replaces operator's local helm-template recipe for pkg/render/gatewayapi/gateway_api_resources.yaml with a cp out of the existing fetch-calico-crds clone, making projectcalico/calico's third_party/envoy-gateway/Makefile the single source of truth for the Envoy Gateway version, the rendered manifest, and the operator's go.mod github.com/envoyproxy/gateway pin.
The new update-envoy-gateway-resources target is wired as a prereq of gen-versions-calico, so the existing hourly sync-versions.yml workflow automatically pulls envoy-gateway changes from calico — no new workflow needed; updates land in the same auto-PRs that already sync CRDs and component versions.
The operator's ENVOY_GATEWAY_VERSION pin, the $(ENVOY_GATEWAY_RESOURCES) helm-template recipe, and the HELM3 download machinery (only consumer was that recipe) are all deleted. As a bonus, update-envoy-gateway-resources also parses ENVOY_GATEWAY_VERSION out of calico's Makefile and bumps operator's go.mod github.com/envoyproxy/gateway line in lockstep via go mod edit + go mod tidy.
