You can now control the scheduling of Config Sync pods using the Kubernetes-native resource MutatingAdmissionPolicy

## Announcement Announcement You can now control the scheduling of Config Sync pods using the Kubernetes-native resource [MutatingAdmissionPolicy](https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/access-authn-authz/mutating-admission-policy/). For more information, see [Customize node placement of Config Sync system pods](https://docs.cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/config-sync/docs/how-to/custom-node-placement) to get started. ## Change Change Config Sync now supports the `client.lifecycle.config.k8s.io/mutation: ignore` annotation for compatibility with other controllers. This enhancement provides more consistent behavior and correctly reports the resource status. ## Change Change Addressed multiple Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) by updating dependencies. ## Change Change Config Sync's internal observability library has been updated from OpenCensus to OpenTelemetry, improving performance and aligning with industry standards with no breaking changes to metrics or functionality.
