…s/Secrets The restarter sets the Pod template annotation to "changes-ignored" not only for excluded objects, but also for referenced ConfigMaps/Secrets that don't exist (yet), e.g. because the StatefulSet was created before a mounted Secret. This is intended, but was confusing, so document it in the code and docs.

I first though this is a bug, but once you think about it, it makes sense. Now we document that it's intended.
