chore(chart): bump to v0.16.0 with pinned operator and agent digests

Updates chart/values.yaml to pin the multi-arch manifest digests for the
newly released operator (v0.16.0) and agent (v6.4.2) images, bumps
chart/Chart.yaml version and appVersion to v0.16.0 to match, and
regenerates chart/CHANGELOG.md via `make changelog COMPONENT=chart`. The
new chart/v0.16.0 section calls out the bundled component versions and
links to their GitHub releases.
