Bump UPI image refs to 4.22

[patrickdillon]

Bump upi installer image version to 4.22. Particularly to pick up a bug fix in oc in 4.22 to filter tech preview credentials requests manifests.

Also needs openshift/installer#10538 but merge order doesn't matter.

Overview

Updates UPI (User Provisioned Infrastructure) installer step definitions in the OpenShift CI configuration to use OpenShift version 4.22. This brings the CI testing infrastructure in line with a bug fix in the oc tool that filters tech preview credentials requests manifests.

Changes

Four IPI installation step configurations in the CI step registry were updated to target OpenShift 4.22:

• ipi-install-heterogeneous: Updated from 4.21 to 4.22
• ipi-install-monitoringpvc: Updated from 4.12 to 4.22
• ipi-install-post-featureset: Updated from 4.14 to 4.22
• ipi-install-post-monitoringpvc: Updated from 4.12 to 4.22

Each update is a single-line change to the version reference in the respective step's configuration manifest. No functional logic or command definitions were modified.

Impact

These changes affect the CI infrastructure for testing OpenShift installer components. By updating to 4.22, the CI will use a newer version of the installer tooling in test workflows, enabling the bug fix for handling tech preview credentials that was introduced in that version.

Walkthrough

Four CI operator step registry YAML files are updated to reference OpenShift version 4.22 instead of earlier versions (4.21, 4.12, and 4.14). Each file contains a single version reference update in its image configuration.
