) Add ExternalCASpec to CertificateAuthoritySpec allowing the operator to connect to an external Puppet/OpenVox CA running outside Kubernetes. When spec.external is set, the operator skips PVC creation, CA setup Job, and CRL refresh, instead routing certificate signing requests directly to the external CA URL with optional mTLS support.
