**Describe the bug**
Argo self managed resources appear as orphaned
**To Reproduce**
1. Enable display of orphaned resources
2. Add some ignore items for them
```
ignore:
- kind: ResourceQuota
- kind: Secret
name: sh.helm.release.v1.*
- kind: Secret
name: '*-tls'
```
3. Go to the argocd application itself
4. Show orphaned resources
5. See `Application - applications` and `AppProject - default`
**Expected behavior**
A clear and concise description of what you expected to happen.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the report with orphaned-resource display enabled and the listed ResourceQuota and Secret ignore rules, then inspect how the Argo CD application handles its Application and AppProject resources. Done means those self-managed resources are no longer shown as orphaned while unrelated orphaned resources remain visible.
