so that ARC respect the registration timeout, terminationGracePeriodSeconds and RUNNER_GRACEFUL_STOP_TIMEOUT(#1759) when the runner pod was terminated externally too early after its creation
While I was running E2E tests for #1759, I discovered a potential issue that ARC can terminate runner pods without waiting for the registration timeout of 10 minutes.
You won't be affected by this in normal circumstances, as this failure scenario can be triggered only when you or another K8s controller like cluster-autoscaler deleted the runner or the runner pod immediately after the runner or the runner pod has been created. But probably is it worth fixing it anyway because it's not impossible to trigger it?
