`genreconciler`: successful finalization breaks status updates

/area API
/kind bug

This is a largely superficial issue, which I only noticed because of some unit testing I was writing and trying to explain this odd behavior.

Expected Behavior

If in FinalizeKind a resource is marked Ready, and nil is returned, then we see both updates (path for finalizer, update status for Ready).

Actual Behavior

Instead the finalizer is removed and the status is NOT updated.

The bug

Using Deployment as an example... If in FinalizeKind we update status and return nil then we will call through here:
https://github.com/knative/pkg/blob/bfab3c8fc5a0a3f725aa0e3478631384ec97d43c/client/injection/kube/reconciler/apps/v1beta1/deployment/reconciler.go#L242-L244

This function uses the input resource (with the updated status) to access the finalizers, find ours and remove it:
https://github.com/knative/pkg/blob/bfab3c8fc5a0a3f725aa0e3478631384ec97d43c/client/injection/kube/reconciler/apps/v1beta1/deployment/reconciler.go#L438-L441

The resource we pass in is used to compute a PATCH on the finalizers specifically:
https://github.com/knative/pkg/blob/bfab3c8fc5a0a3f725aa0e3478631384ec97d43c/client/injection/kube/reconciler/apps/v1beta1/deployment/reconciler.go#L373-L378

However, any other mutations (e.g. our status update) are ignored here. This is a problem because the resource that is returned by this function is the updated copy that is returned by the PATCH which does not have our status update reflected:
https://github.com/knative/pkg/blob/bfab3c8fc5a0a3f725aa0e3478631384ec97d43c/client/injection/kube/reconciler/apps/v1beta1/deployment/reconciler.go#L388-L396

Start in client/injection/kube/reconciler/apps/v1beta1/deployment/reconciler.go at the finalization and patch paths cited in the issue. Trace how the updated resource is used when removing the finalizer, then verify with unit coverage that a successful FinalizeKind persists both the finalizer removal and the Ready status update.
