v1.8.2

This patch release contains a number of documentation updates, as well as the following notable bug fixes:

• #3209 Adds Secret deletion permissions to Crossplane ServiceAccount
• #3268 Retries fetching package digest when registries do not support acquiring via HEAD requests.
• #3308 Switches to identifying revisions by name when adding and removing from the Lock. This guards against the case where two revisions for the same package enter a race condition adding and removing entries.
