scale issue

Description of problem:
Dashboards do not support automatic unit transformation for time.

If value is at the sec scale it should be mapped accordingly. Attached screenshot shows a case where instead of seeing 10 secs user sees 10K ms.

It seems that this is already supported for bytes. This affects Serverless dashboards.


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


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Serverless operator from master (https://github.com/openshift-knative/serverless-operator) with  Knative Eventing, Serving and Kafka 
make images install
make install-strimzi
make install-kafka

2. Install an apiserversource and related kafka channel:
https://gist.github.com/skonto/2c7eeab8b3d1d4ea3d007017971d0ea6

3. Check Knative channel dashboard after a few minutes

Note here that in the same graph there are values at very different magnitude (attached file).

In general this should be reproducible with any dashboard that relies on time units.

Actual results:

Scale does not changed.

Expected results:
Scale should be changed.

tested with 4.9.0-0.nightly-2021-07-11-143719, followed steps in Comment 0
docker version 20.10.7
# yq --version
yq version 3.4.1

# oc get clusterserviceversion
NAME                          DISPLAY                        VERSION   REPLACES                      PHASE
serverless-operator.v1.17.0   Red Hat OpenShift Serverless   1.17.0    serverless-operator.v1.16.0   Succeeded

values on the graph use the same magnitude, for UX 
if value > 1000, will convert to sec
otherwise will still use ms
