Add ability to set operator arguments via CRD or ConfigMap in the OpenShift OLM operator

[ddreggors]

Currently, it seems the only mechanism in OpenShift to set the operator arguments like --datadogMonitorEnabled=true (and others) is via CSV:

As seen in this comment on issue 531:

#531 (comment)

 oc get csv -n openshift-operators datadog-operator.v1.12.1 -o json | grep args -B 5 -A 3
                                    }
                                },
                                "spec": {
                                    "containers": [
                                        {
                                            "args": [
                                                "--enable-leader-election",
                                                "--pprof",
                                                "--datadogMonitorEnabled=true"

This really should be addressed; a CSV is a post-install object managed by the OLM and is not the best approach to setting flags for operators. This should be configurable either via a CRD or a ConfigMap.

This should not be marked as stale; it hasn't even been assigned any developer yet. I can see if the reporter (me) failed to follow through or respond to requests, but in this case it has just been waiting for available developers.
