Description

Currently we use the default (background) deletion propagation when we delete Kubernetes resources such as the JobManager deployment.

In most cases this is acceptable however this can lead to lingering resources when the garbage collection is slow on the k8s cluster. We therefore propose to make this configurable and also change the default to Foreground which is more predictable and works better for our purposes in the operator.
