docs: Warn against Helm's --reuse-values in Cilium upgrades #18259

@gandro gandro commented Dec 14, 2021

Using --reuse-values to upgrade to a new minor Cilium version is never been supported and may break the Helm template in subtle ways due to the lack of new default values. Adding this in the docs after a user on Slack reported multiple problems by using this flag, as supporting the flag in the chart is a rather large task and likely requires some automation and testing to ensure it remains supported.

For more details, see also helm/helm#3957 (comment)
