Does not consider daemonset resources for node pool if the daemonset matches the nodepool using a node Affininty

[myaser]

Description

Observed Behavior: I craeted a daemonset that has the following nodeAffinity

      affinity:
        nodeAffinity:
          requiredDuringSchedulingIgnoredDuringExecution:
            nodeSelectorTerms:
            - matchExpressions:
              - key: zalando.org/nvidia-gpu
                operator: Exists
            - matchExpressions:
              - key: karpenter.k8s.aws/instance-gpu-manufacturer
                operator: In
                values:
                - nvidia

observing karpenter logs and experimenting with scheduling pods of different sizes, I could find that karpenter's calculations for daemonset resources excludes this pod

I could confirm this by checking the code.

here it is reading only the first of the affinities relying on an outer loop to remove the first affinity and continue with the next one

but, this is not happening for daemonset calculation as shown here

to validate my findings, I flipped the affinities order and the calculations were corrected

      affinity:
        nodeAffinity:
          requiredDuringSchedulingIgnoredDuringExecution:
            nodeSelectorTerms:
            - matchExpressions:
              - key: karpenter.k8s.aws/instance-gpu-manufacturer
                operator: In
                values:
                - nvidia
            - matchExpressions:
              - key: zalando.org/nvidia-gpu
                operator: Exists

Expected Behavior: all affinities should be considered for calculating daemonset resources
