Current behavior
The controller watches for all changes to VirtualServices, and triggers reconciliation for relevant VirtualServiceMerges.
Proposed behavior
The controller doesn't necessarily need to watch for DeleteEvents, GenericEvents, and also UpdateEvents where the VirtualService spec has not changed.
The controller should limit itself to only watch for CreateEvents and UpdateEvents whose VirtualService spec has changed, in order not to trigger wasteful reconciliation cycles.
Tests
We are currently using this edited version of the controller in production, and everything works as expected.
