HYPERFLEET-1017 - refactor: rename aggregated Available condition to LastKnownReconciled

Rename the API-computed aggregated condition from Available to
LastKnownReconciled. The adapter-level Available condition remains
unchanged. Includes backward compatibility for legacy DB records
and updated documentation.

 4. **Filtering (labels)**: Labels are key-value pairs you can attach to resources for organization and filtering (e.g., `environment: production`, `region: us-east-1`). E.g., Sentinel instances can define resource selectors based on labels to watch specific subsets of resources, enabling horizontal scaling across multiple Sentinel deployments.
