This commit introduces a new `updateStrategy` field for statefulset-based workloads (Prometheus, PrometheusAgent, Alertmanager and ThanosRuler). While for now, there's a 1:1 mapping with StatefulSet strategies, it paves the way to the introduction of custom strategies which may be required to streamline operations in case of broken updates (similar to the scenario explained in https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/workloads/controllers/statefulset/#forced-rollback).
