Pull request overview

Adds a new documentation blog post announcing Java Operator SDK v5.4.0, highlighting key features and migration notes for users following the project’s release cadence.

Changes:

  • Introduces the v5.4 release announcement post with feature highlights (shard selector, event filtering controls, context lookups, retry semantics).
  • Documents additional improvements and migration notes (shutdown hook deprecation, owner reference mapper changes, dependency snippet, comparison link).

### Shard Selector Support

Large clusters sometimes need the same operator to run as multiple replicas, each responsible for a
subset ("shard") of the resources. From 5.4.0 you can configure a **shard selector** — a second,
(e.g. `.../v1`) still resolve correctly after the served/storage version changes (e.g. to `.../v2`).
- **`GenericRetry#setMaxInterval(Duration)`**: a `Duration`-based overload alongside the existing
millis-based one, e.g. `new GenericRetry().setMaxInterval(Duration.ofMinutes(5))`.
- **Fabric8 client upgraded to 7.8.0**, which enables shard selectors and the re-list callback above.
