Karpenter log error "karpenter is not compatible with kubernetes version (version=1.34)" on v1.6.0

[PremChavhan]

Description
After upgrading our Amazon EKS cluster from 1.33 to 1.34 and updating Karpenter/CRDs to 1.6.0, Karpenter is throwing compatibility errors in the controller logs. While the compatibility matrix indicates the 1.6 release stream supports Kubernetes 1.34.

Actual Behavior
The Karpenter controller logs continuously output the following validation block:
updating version, validating kubernetes version, karpenter is not compatiable with kubernetes version (version=1.34))

Environment
Karpenter Version: 1.6.0
Karpenter CRD Version: 1.6.0
Kubernetes Version: 1.34
Cloud Provider: AWS (EKS)
Deployment Method: Helm

Can you try upgrading to the latest patch version for v1.6.x (v1.6.6)? Karpenter v1.6.6 does support K8s 1.34 - https://github.com/aws/karpenter-provider-aws/blob/v1.6.6/pkg/providers/version/version.go#L44

I imagine the compatibility matrix in https://karpenter.sh/docs/upgrading/compatibility/#compatibility-matrix applies to the latest patch release on each minor version, although its something we should probably document
