Feature or Problem
This PR adds a simple check before publishing a status to query the previous status and skip publishing if it would be the exact same. This should quiet down the status stream quite a bit for already deployed applications and it should make it a lot easier to follow during debugging.

Manual Verification
The status stream was much less noisy during e2e tests, for example during the upgrade e2e test the number of status messages went from 57 to 23. This is impressive as this PR isn't primarily concerned with reducing the number during deployment, we just end up publishing a lot of duplicate statuses.
