Make Platform SDK initialization optional with graceful fallback

This commit fixes smoke test timeouts by making Platform SDK
initialization optional. If SDK runtime initialization fails
(e.g., PlatformConfig CRDs not installed), the controller now
falls back to legacy mode instead of failing to start.

Changes:
- internal/controller/standalone_controller.go: Modified
  SetupWithManager to handle SDK initialization failures gracefully
  by setting SDKRuntime to nil (triggers legacy mode)

This ensures backward compatibility with environments that don't
have Platform SDK CRDs installed, such as existing smoke tests.

Previously, the smoke tests were timing out after 4 hours because:
1. SDK runtime initialization would fail if CRDs weren't present
2. The controller setup would fail entirely
3. Pods couldn't start, tests waited forever for Ready state

Now the controller will:
1. Attempt to initialize SDK runtime
2. If it fails, log a warning and use legacy mode (sdkRuntime=nil)
3. Fall back to legacy StatefulSet creation path
4. Allow smoke tests to proceed normally

Fixes timeout issues in:
- smoke-tests (managermc)
- smoke-tests (basic)
- smoke-tests (appframeworksS1)
- smoke-tests (managersecret)
