Description of problem:

KubeApiLatencyHigh warning should only be firing if all conditions are met AND the latency is over 1s.
However we have seen this fire with

```
The API server has an abnormal latency of 0.05685404799999992 seconds for PUT namespace
```

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
OpenShift Dedicated 4.3.18

How reproducible:
Partially

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Execute alerting rule in Prometheus to graph
2. Scroll out until you find an occurence

Actual results:
0.05685404799999992

Expected results:
>1

Additional info:
This can as well be fixed by adjusting the message to be something more meaningful

tested with 4.6.0-0.nightly-2020-06-11-041445, KubeAPILatencyHigh alert details see below, and there is not such alert in the cluster
