Operator doesn't delete components when removed from configuration

[sfc-gh-dguy]

Component(s)

collector, target allocator

What happened?

Description

I have an otel operator that creates otel collectors as daemonset and an otel target allocator based on an OpenTelemetryCollector CR.
I removed the target allocator part from the OpenTelemetryCollector CR but the target allocator wasn't deleted.
Only when I manually delete it, it's removed and is not recreated as it was removed from the config.
I also deleted the whole OpenTelemetryCollector CR and both the daemonset and the target allocator weren't deleted.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create an OpenTelemetryCollector CR that defines collectors daemonset and atarget allocator deployment
2. Let the operator create the components
3. Delete the target allocator part from the CR

Expected Result

Target allocator should be deleted when removed from the CR

Actual Result

Target allocator wasn't deleted when removed from the CR
