Disabling MetalLB Addon in "InstallAddonError" Status Fails to Delete Resources on the Cluster

Problem

When the metalLB enable operation fails, the addon goes into the InstallAddonError state, but the speaker and other pods get deployed. At this point, when we try to disable the metalLB addon, the speaker pods and other deployments on the cluster do not get deleted. Only the Sunpike object clusterAddon gets deleted.

status:
