The repo-watcher's delete loop was unconditionally removing any
GitBranch whose branch name didn't appear on the remote. This caused
a race with the push controller: when a GitBranch is created for a
branch that doesn't yet exist (e.g., before a push transaction),
the watcher would delete it before the push could complete.
Fix: only delete GitBranch CRDs that the repo-watcher itself created,
identified by having an owner reference pointing to the GitRepository.
Branches created manually or by other controllers are left alone.
This fixes the flaky TestPushTransaction e2e test, where the watcher
would delete "e2e-push-feature" before the push controller could
update its headCommit.

Introduces a fourth controller that watches GitRepository resources and
polls their remotes via git ls-remote on a configurable per-repo interval
(spec.pollInterval, defaulting to 30s). It auto-creates, updates, and
deletes GitBranch CRDs to reflect the actual state of the remote,
enabling fast detection of external pushes to trigger downstream sync.
Key changes:
- Add PollInterval field to GitRepositorySpec
- New pkg/reconciler/repowatcher with controller and reconciler
- New cmd/repo-watcher-controller binary
- CRD manifest updated for pollInterval
- Deployment manifest for the new controller
- Unit tests for ref filtering, naming, and poll interval logic
- CLAUDE.md updated with new controller docs and Go module workaround
