fix(self-managed): bump ess-api chart pin to 1.7.2

[nvaghela-oss]

TL;DR

Bump the ess-api chart version pinned by the self-managed stack from 1.7.0 to 1.7.2 so a stack install pulls the current ESS API chart.

Why

The self-managed Helmfile pins each service chart by version. The ess-api release was still on 1.7.0. The ESS chart line has moved forward (appVersion aligned to the ESS 0.4.13 service image), so the stack should consume the newer chart.

What changed

• deploy/stacks/self-managed/helmfile.d/02-core.yaml.gotmpl: ess-api release version: 1.7.0 -> 1.7.2. No other releases touched.

Customer Release Notes

Self-managed stack now deploys ESS API chart 1.7.2.

Plan Summary

Single chart-version pin change. No template or values changes. Rendered topology is unchanged apart from the ess-api chart version.

Usage

Not applicable (picked up automatically by make -C deploy/stacks/self-managed install).

Testing

helm lint/helm template for the ess-api chart pass locally. Full stack render/install requires NGC credentials and a k3d cluster (not run here). The deploy/stacks/self-managed OCI pull of helm-nvcf-ess-api:1.7.2 requires that chart version to be published in the registry.

Notes

Depends on ESS chart 1.7.2 being published to the OCI registry. That release is produced by the ess-helm release automation once #791 (which bumps the chart appVersion) merges and tags deploy/helm/encrypted-secret-store/v1.7.2. Do not merge/deploy this stack bump before 1.7.2 is available in the registry, or the install will fail to pull the chart.

Mergeability Score: 🔵 Low · up to 8591b

This change updates the ESS API chart pin from 1.7.0 to 1.7.2. It is low risk, but installations can fail if chart 1.7.2 is not yet available in the configured OCI source, so that dependency requires explicit owner awareness before deployment.
