The invalid SC is accepted resulting in a Rejected Backingstore

In OCS UI: Backingstore creation should reject Provider :PVC with OBC only SC

Description of problem (please be detailed as possible and provide log
snippests):
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This BZ is raised to report the dissimilarities in behavior seen between UI and CLI process while using an invalid SC for creating PVC backed Backingstore.

While verifiying the fix for Bug 1820297, following were the observations:

1. If one uses noobaa cli command to create a bakingstore with invalid StorageClass, the SC is rejected and no PVC/POD and Backingstore are created

2. If one uses UI: Installed Operators->OCS Operator->Backing Store-> create Backing Store and selects an invalid OBC only SC for creation, the UI doesn't reject this SC. This results in a Pending PVC and POD and a rejected unusable Backingstore

Does this issue impact your ability to continue to work with the product
(please explain in detail what is the user impact)?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No. But UI keeps showing the Backingstore in "Creating" phase and ultimately in Rejected phase. This is not a good user experience. UI should disallow selecting these SCs.
Is there any workaround available to the best of your knowledge?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Not known

Rate from 1 - 5 the complexity of the scenario you performed that caused this
bug (1 - very simple, 5 - very complex)?

Can this issue reproducible?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes

Can this issue reproduce from the UI?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes

If this is a regression, please provide more details to justify this:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No

Steps to Reproduce:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Tested in UI
==================

A) navigated to Installed Operators->OpenShift Container Storage --> Create Backing Store 

1. Tried creating a backingstore

Backing Store Name* = neha
Provider = PVC
Storage Class = openshift-storage.noobaa.io

2. State of resources after the fix:

>>oc get pvc

neha-noobaa-pvc-bdb188e3       Pending       openshift-storage.noobaa.io   17m

>>oc get pod
neha-noobaa-pod-bdb188e3   0/1     Pending     0          16m     <none>        <none>      <none>           <none>

>>oc get backingstore -A
NAMESPACE           NAME                           TYPE            PHASE      AGE
openshift-storage   neha                           pv-pool         Rejected   11m


P.S: Atleast The noobaa-opearor pod did not report panic which is a good sign.


Actual results:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
UI accepts an invalid SC (OBC only SC) and this results in unusable Pending & rejected resources created in the namespace. 

Expected results:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Behavior should be same across CLI and UI. OCS UI should reject creation of a Backingstore with an invalid OBC only SC

Additional info:
----------------------------------------------------------------------



Verification from CLI
=================================
Similar creation from CLI is rejected as expected
------------------------------------------

UI screenshot to confirm only valid SCs are listed in drop-down

verified the fix on following cluster version. The drop-down no longer lists the 2 RGW SCs while creating PV based Backingstores.

Moving the BZ to verified state for OCP 4.6.
