      Description of problem:

      After the ProvisioningRequest passes validation and the ClusterInstance CR is created (installation begins), the subsequent rendering of the ClusterInstance fails due to the following spec update error, even though no user update occurred:

        - lastTransitionTime: "2025-09-27T00:45:54Z"
    message: 'Failed to render and validate ClusterInstance: failed to validate the
      rendered ClusterInstance with dry-run: failed to apply ClusterInstance: admission
      webhook "clusterinstances.siteconfig.open-cluster-management.io" denied the
      request: spec update not allowed during provisioning or cluster reinstalls'
    reason: Failed

      At this point, the ClusterInstance CR has already transitioned to "InProgress – Provisioning cluster". However, the PR’s ClusterProvisioned condition remains Unknown because the render error blocks progress to the phase that checks the ClusterInstance’s Provisioned condition. The PR keeps getting requeued and reporting outdated status until the render error disappears after the cluster is provisioned (code reference).

        - lastTransitionTime: "2025-09-27T00:45:47Z"
    message: Waiting for provisioning to start
    reason: Unknown
    status: Unknown
    type: ClusterProvisioned

      Meanwhile, the PR’s ClusterProvisioned condition does not match what provisioningPhase/provisioningDetails report:

        provisioningStatus:
    provisioningDetails: Cluster installation is in progress
    provisioningPhase: progressing

      The condition did eventually update to Completed, but there was a delay before the PR phase moved to fulfilled.

        - lastTransitionTime: "2025-09-27T01:35:29Z"
    message: Provisioning completed
    reason: Completed
    status: "True"
    type: ClusterProvisioned

    provisioningDetails: Cluster installation is in progress
    provisioningPhase: progressing
    updateTime: "2025-09-27T00:45:47Z"

    provisioningDetails: Provisioning request has completed successfully
    provisioningPhase: fulfilled
    updateTime: "2025-09-27T01:41:08Z"
