Summary

Add "Unhealthy Pods" stat panel showing count of pods in error states (ImagePullBackOff, CrashLoopBackOff, etc.) with red background when > 0
Add "Pods by Waiting Reason" time series chart showing container waiting states over time
Provides visibility into stuck pods that ArgoCD doesn't track (since it manages CronJobs, not the Jobs/Pods they spawn)

Context

This addresses the issue where a zim-watcher cronjob pod was stuck in ImagePullBackOff for 11 days without any alerting. ArgoCD showed the CronJob as "Synced, Healthy" because it only manages the CronJob resource, not its spawned Jobs/Pods.

Deployment and Testing

Sync grafana-config app to test branch
Verify dashboard renders correctly
Confirm "Unhealthy Pods" shows 0 (green) when no issues
Reset to main after merge

Add TTL to zim-watcher CronJob for automatic cleanup 4f2e49f219

Jobs created by the CronJob will now auto-delete 4 days after completion.
This prevents zombie Jobs from accumulating when the CronJob spec changes
(e.g., image updates), since ArgoCD only tracks the CronJob resource itself,
not the Jobs it spawns.
