Tom Brow 19aa619fdd release: publish push gateway chart 0.4.0 (#8231)
Publish push gateway chart 0.4.0 through the repository's protected
release lane. The chart implementation and version already landed in
[#8206](https://github.com/block/buzz/pull/8206); this PR adds release
notes without changing runtime behavior.

Merging `push-chart-release/0.4.0` invokes the release bot to create
`push-chart-v0.4.0` and publish the immutable chart to GHCR. Publication
unblocks [the wrapper
chart](https://github.com/squareup/cash-helm-charts/pull/5740) and
subsequent disabled-production preparation. This does not activate any
gateway.

### Validation

Release notes match the merged single-application configuration and
migration guards. Diff checks pass. The source PR's required checks and
PostgreSQL suite passed; chart validation will run again on this release
PR.

Buzz push gateway chart

0.4.0 release

This release configures one Apple application per gateway through application, replacing the profile map. Use it with the gateway implementing buzz-push-v1; clients must enroll again using the new capability. Configure the App Attest application ID and APNs topic explicitly before enabling the gateway.

Stop old gateway instances and verify the migration prerequisites before activation. The gateway migration refuses existing installations, and the relay migration refuses active legacy leases; neither deletes registration state.

Platform-managed runtime integration

podLabels, serviceAccountName, and terminationGracePeriodSeconds configure only runtime pods. Defaults retain the existing pod specification; the grace period cannot be shorter than 60 seconds. Additional labels cannot override the chart's name, instance, or component selectors. Migration settings remain separate.

A parent chart that supplies its own runtime NetworkPolicy can set networkPolicy.enabled=false and networkPolicy.externalPolicyName to that policy's name. The name is an explicit acknowledgement, not a cluster existence check: the parent must render and validate a policy selecting the runtime pods before deployment. Supplying a replacement name while the upstream policy is enabled is rejected. The migration NetworkPolicy remains enabled independently.

External-policy releases must run tests/check-external-policy.rb on the complete parent render including hooks, before install or upgrade. Helm 3 excludes hooks from its post-renderer input, so --post-renderer alone is not a sufficient gate. Render without --no-hooks or resource filtering, using the same chart, release name, namespace, values and capabilities as the deployment:

set -o pipefail
helm template RELEASE PARENT_CHART --namespace NAMESPACE -f VALUES.yaml \
  | ruby tests/check-external-policy.rb --expect DEPLOYMENT POLICY NAMESPACE > validated-release.yaml

--expect is mandatory for external-policy deployment and CI invocations. Provide the intended Deployment name, replacement policy name and release namespace from deployment configuration, not by extracting the annotations being checked. Repeat it for each external-policy Deployment. Missing Deployments or removed or overwritten markers then fail closed. No-argument mode is only for renders that intentionally have no external-policy requirement, such as default-mode tests.

For upgrade preflight, include --is-upgrade. Deployment automation must stop if this pipeline fails and must not change the chart or rendering inputs between validation and deployment. Run the post-renderer additionally during Helm install/upgrade to check ordinary resources, but retain the full-render preflight to detect hook collisions. GitOps render pipelines must validate the complete hook-inclusive output before submitting it to their reconciler. The Deployment records the required policy name. The gate rejects a missing, misspelled, duplicate, wrong-namespace or non-selecting replacement, and requires both ingress and egress isolation. It emits no manifests on failure and preserves successful output byte-for-byte. Parent CI must run this same gate on its complete render; a subchart-only render intentionally fails in external-policy mode. The deployment owner must separately validate the allowed traffic and rolling drain.

Deployment annotations

Use deploymentAnnotations for Deployment metadata such as secret.reloader.stakater.com/reload. These do not apply to runtime Pods or migration Jobs. Values must be strings; buzz.block.xyz/release-namespace and buzz.block.xyz/external-network-policy are reserved for chart policy ownership.
