Bug 1958792

Description of problem:
Degraded one operator to trigger ClusterOperatorDegraded alert. It cost 30min+ to get it firing from pending state, but the message says the operator has been degraded for 10m.

# curl -s -k -H "Authorization: Bearer $token"  https://prometheus-k8s-openshift-monitoring.apps.jliu-48.qe.gcp.devcluster.openshift.com/api/v1/alerts | jq -r '.data.alerts[]| select(.labels.alertname == "ClusterOperatorDegraded")'
{
  "labels": {
    "alertname": "ClusterOperatorDegraded",
    "condition": "Degraded",

    "severity": "warning"
  },
  "annotations": {
    "message": "Cluster operator authentication has been degraded for 10 minutes. Operator is degraded because OAuthServerConfigObservation_Error and cluster upgrades will be unstable."
  },
  "state": "firing",
  "activeAt": "2021-05-10T03:04:29.21303266Z",
  "value": "1e+00"
}

The wait time was updated recently in[1] since it was 10min before.
