feat(helm): Compute ConfigMap/Secret checksum only over .data content (…

…#15177)

Currently, whenever merely the Helm chart version changes, all deployments/statefulsets and their pod templates are updated and restarted, because the sha256 checksum of the whole ConfigMap/Secret is computed, not just based on the .data content.
And this is because with a new Helm chart version, that version is also encoded in the metadata of the ConfigMap/Secret resource, which however has no influence on the state of the volume mount for the running application/deployment/statefulset pods.

This is an improvement to avoid this and only compute the sh256 checksum based on the .data content.
