The MCO is required to roll out the master config pool prior to reporting level, and thus CVO should never reach Available at a new version without the master pool being updated. Add an extra check to the pool rollout - if we see the master pool with an Updating condition flag it and fail the upgrade job. Also handle paused pools in the wait loop (a paused pool is effectively "we will not deal with this pool" and so we will exit early and log).
