Every other Job family carries a TTLSecondsAfterFinished (fileedit 2m,
backup/restore 10m) but the build lane never set one: each build left a
completed Job + Pod in felis-build indefinitely (5 already on the drill
cluster, oldest 26h), growing etcd and — since completed pods count
against the node's pod budget (110 on stock k3s) — eventually blocking
new builds. The code even anticipated GC it never got ("JobUnknown
means the Job was not found (e.g. GC'd)").
Set a deliberately long TTL (7 days): the kaniko log is the admin
failure-triage surface (GET /images/build/{id}/logs), so the window
keeps a week of logs while bounding steady-state pods; terminal builds
are idempotent under Sync, so a late log-404 is the only cost.
