fix: Remove incorrect status service

[adwk67]

Description

Fixes #798.

Status updates are currently sent to prometheus (correct) and the bundle-builder service, which exposes a status endpoint, but does not offer one to POST to. This has been removed.

The config now changes from

{
...
  "status": {
    "service": "stackable"
    "prometheus": true
  }
}

to

{
...
  "status": {
    "prometheus": true
  }
}

and log outputs showing previously

opa {"level":"info","msg":"Bundle loaded and activated successfully.","name":"stackable","plugin":"bundle","time":"2026-01-20T08:09:52Z","logger":"server"}
opa {"level":"error","msg":"status update failed, server replied with HTTP 404 Not Found.","plugin":"status","time":"2026-01-20T08:09:52Z","logger":"server"}

now show

opa {"level":"info","msg":"Bundle loaded and activated successfully.","name":"stackable","plugin":"bundle","time":"2026-01-20T11:57:24Z","logger":"server"}
opa {"level":"info","msg":"Status update sent successfully in response to plugin update.","plugin":"status","time":"2026-01-20T11:57:24Z","logger":"server"}

LGTM code-wise but maybe there was some intention here that I'm missing

[sbernauer]

Just for the record:
I only added status.service back than because the docs state it's required in https://www.openpolicyagent.org/docs/configuration#status.
Looks like the docs are wrong.

But anyway, we even added a metrics assertion to the smoke test in that PR, so as long as the test passes I don't care to be honest.

Checked with @sbernauer:

• we have a script in the smoke test and that checks that the expected metrics are available (which worked and still works).
• the docs state that the service name is required, but that does not actually seem to be the case.

Could you add a release note for this bug please?

Previously, this went wrong. With this release, this was fixed in the following way.
