Fix daemonset deletion in general stage

[MondayCha]

What type of PR is this?

/kind bug

What this PR does / why we need it:

Kwok provides a WIP General Stage configuration to simulate a more comprehensive Pod lifecycle. However, when DaemonSets with tolerations configured as shown below exist, the General Stage configuration prevents these DaemonSet Pods from being garbage collected.

tolerations:
- operator: Exists

If users attempt to delete these Pods before deleting the node, the DaemonSet will automatically rebuild them. Therefore, for DaemonSets, users typically don't explicitly delete Pods but rather delete nodes, relying on Kubernetes' GC mechanism to delete the Pods.

However, since the General Stage adds Finalizers to all Pods, it causes Kubernetes' native GC mechanism to fail, leaving Pods stuck in the Terminating state.

finalizers:
  add:
  - value: 'kwok.x-k8s.io/fake'

To address this, this PR considers ignoring Finalizers for DaemonSet-type Pods. Additionally, it fixes the missing startTime field in pod-ready.yaml compared to the fast configuration.

Does this PR introduce a user-facing change?

NONE

Hi @MondayCha. Thanks for your PR.

I'm waiting for a kubernetes-sigs member to verify that this patch is reasonable to test. If it is, they should reply with /ok-to-test on its own line. Until that is done, I will not automatically test new commits in this PR, but the usual testing commands by org members will still work. Regular contributors should join the org to skip this step.

Once the patch is verified, the new status will be reflected by the ok-to-test label.

I understand the commands that are listed here.

I think we can remove all finalizers from the general stage
