Cortex is in pending state without starting workloads

[alexandreLamarre]

steps to reproduce

• Start with a fresh cluster
• Install via HA preset with S3
• UI shows monitoring backend is installed

expected

UI

• expected UI to show some warning that cortex is in fact not installed (driver status = Pending here)
• UI is not using the correct APIs or correct API ordering, needs further investigating

Backend

• expected cortex to deploy workloads

Not classified

• expected monitoring cluster CRD preset to not be "all", expected replicas to be 3

Deleting the CRD and attempting to re-install via the UI results in the call:

[alexandreLamarre]

there is something weird going on with the gateway ref, after I fixed it manually and got cortex to all-in-one to install, when switching to HA preset mode in the UI, it edited the CRD to have:

gateway:
  name : opni-gateway

but did not include the namespace

[alexandreLamarre]

this also did not switch cortex to HA preset:

The status indicates it thinks it should be all in one and has deleted the HA setup

Trying to then edit the config in the UI, results in the following bug:

[alexandreLamarre]

When the HA configuration was accepted by the UI, it was not applied to the backend:

        "revision": "56399193"
    },

            "all": {

            }
        }
    },

This is also tracks the UI failures and expected behavior for the UI
