* feat(annotations): add custom annotation prefix support for split horizon DNS
Add --annotation-prefix flag to allow customizing the annotation prefix
used by external-dns. This enables split horizon DNS scenarios where
multiple instances process different sets of annotations from the same
Kubernetes resources.
Changes:
- Add AnnotationPrefix field to Config with validation
- Convert annotation constants to variables that can be reconfigured
- Add SetAnnotationPrefix() function to rebuild annotation keys
- Integrate annotation prefix setting in controller startup
- Update Helm chart with annotationPrefix value
- Add comprehensive split horizon DNS documentation
- Update FAQ with annotation prefix examples
This maintains full backward compatibility - the default prefix remains
"external-dns.alpha.kubernetes.io/".

* test: add AnnotationPrefix field to test configs
Add missing AnnotationPrefix field to minimalConfig and overriddenConfig
test configurations to match the new default value set in NewConfig().

* refactor(annotations): remove init() for explicit initialization
- Remove init() function from annotations package
- Add explicit SetAnnotationPrefix() call in controller/execute.go
- Remove annotation key aliases from source/source.go
- Replace all alias usages with annotations.* references (348 changes in 28 files)
- Add TestMain to existing test files (service_test.go, cloudflare_test.go)
This change makes annotation initialization explicit and predictable,
avoiding hidden global state initialization at import time.

* refactor(annotations): replace hardcoded annotation prefix with constant
Replace all hardcoded "external-dns.alpha.kubernetes.io/" strings
with annotations.DefaultAnnotationPrefix constant to establish
a single source of truth.
Changes:
- Add DefaultAnnotationPrefix constant in source/annotations/annotations.go
- Replace hardcoded string in controller/execute.go with constant reference
- Replace hardcoded strings in pkg/apis/externaldns/types.go (2 occurrences)
- Add helm unit tests for annotationPrefix value
This eliminates string duplication and makes future changes easier.

* feat(source/node): Make exclusion of unschedulable Nodes configurable
This fixes a behavioral regression introduced in #4761, where
nodes that were previously added to DNS are removed when they are considered
unschedulable, for example due to automated maintenance tasks.
This change will introduce a new flag called `exclude-unschedulable`, which
defaults to `true` in order to keep in line with the current behavior.
However, it would also be reasonable to restore the initial behavior before
* Allow testing for expected log entries in testNodeSourceEndpoints
This commit adds the required logic to be able to test for
the existence (and absence) of certain log messages
in testNodeSourceEndpoints. As an example, this is implemented
for the tests around excludeUnschedulable.
A side effect of using LogsToBuffer is that tests can't run in
parallel due to the log buffer being shared across all
parallel test cases. As such, these specific tests are now executed
one after another.
* Ensure logging is only hooked for tests that require it
* Document new exclude-unschedulable flag for nodes source
