Update GatewayAPI to v1.4.0

[ciarams87]

Proposed changes

Problem: We don't currently support the latest version of the Gateway API

Solution: Upgrade to v1.4.0, including BackendTLSPolicy promotion -> v1 and other Policy type promotion -> v1. See the full changelog. Also enables the conformance tests for BackendTLSPolicy.

This also requires upgrading the inference extension from 1.0.2 -> 1.1.0 to resolve dependency conflicts.

Testing: unit testing, running the pipeline for conformance and functional testing, but the RC run passed conformance.

Please focus on (optional): If you any specific areas where you would like reviewers to focus their attention or provide

Closes #4034
Closes #3795

Looks like this PR is also updating inference extension from 1.0.2 -> 1.1.0, which i guess is fine, but was that intentional? If so we should add that to the PR notes.

@bjee19 Good catch Ben - yes I needed to update this as well as there was a misnamed variable being referenced somewhere causing conformance tests to fail. I named the commit (Upgrade inference extension to v1.1.0 to fix conformance tests) but neglected to update the notes. Thank you!!
