New periodic job for testing ARO-HCP on OCP 5.0

Summary by CodeRabbit

Adds a weekly production periodic job in the ARO-HCP CI configuration to test OCP 5.0 with candidate channels, production subscriptions, and a four-hour timeout.

Updates the persistent ARO-HCP test step to support the latest OpenShift Z stream and independent control-plane and node-pool versions.

[openshift-ci]

Hi @miquelsi. Thanks for your PR.

I'm waiting for a openshift member to verify that this patch is reasonable to test. If it is, they should reply with /ok-to-test on its own line. Until that is done, I will not automatically test new commits in this PR, but the usual testing commands by org members will still work.

Tip

We noticed you've done this a few times! Consider joining the org to skip this step and gain /lgtm and other bot rights. We recommend asking approvers on your previous PRs to sponsor you.

Once the patch is verified, the new status will be reflected by the ok-to-test label.

I understand the commands that are listed here.

Check name	Status	Explanation
Description Check	✅ Passed	Check skipped - CodeRabbit’s high-level summary is enabled.
Title check	✅ Passed	The title clearly and concisely describes the new periodic ARO-HCP test job for OCP 5.0.
Docstring Coverage	✅ Passed	No functions found in the changed files to evaluate docstring coverage. Skipping docstring coverage check.
Linked Issues check	✅ Passed	Check skipped because no linked issues were found for this pull request.
Out of Scope Changes check	✅ Passed	Check skipped because no linked issues were found for this pull request.
Stable And Deterministic Test Names	✅ Passed	The commit adds CI job metadata and environment declarations only; the diff introduces no Ginkgo It(), Describe(), Context(), or When() test titles or dynamic title construction.
Test Structure And Quality	✅ Passed	The PR changes only YAML configuration; no Go/Ginkgo source or Ginkgo constructs changed. The new workflow and test step both define a 4-hour timeout.
Microshift Test Compatibility	✅ Passed	The parent-to-HEAD diff changes only three CI YAML files and adds no Ginkgo tests or test source, so MicroShift test compatibility checks do not apply.
Single Node Openshift (Sno) Test Compatibility	✅ Passed	The commit changes only CI YAML job configuration and environment declarations; the diff adds no Ginkgo e2e tests or test bodies requiring multi-node behavior.
Topology-Aware Scheduling Compatibility	✅ Passed	The PR changes only CI periodic/step configuration and environment variables; the diff adds no deployment manifests, operator/controller code, or topology scheduling constraints.
Ote Binary Stdout Contract	✅ Passed	The PR changes only YAML job and environment declarations; the diff adds no process-level stdout writes, logging setup, or OTE binary code.
Ipv6 And Disconnected Network Test Compatibility	✅ Passed	The HEAD diff adds only periodic-job and step-reference YAML; it adds no Go files or Ginkgo It/Describe/Context/When declarations, so this check is not triggered.
No-Weak-Crypto	✅ Passed	The HEAD^..HEAD diff adds only periodic-job and environment YAML; the exact added-line scan found no MD5, SHA1, DES, RC4, Blowfish, ECB, crypto, or constant-time comparison usage.
Container-Privileges	✅ Passed	The diff adds no privileged, hostPID, hostNetwork, hostIPC, SYS_ADMIN, allowPrivilegeEscalation, securityContext, or root-user declaration.
No-Sensitive-Data-In-Logs	✅ Passed	The diff adds job and environment declarations only. It adds no logging code or secret values, and the unchanged test script disables xtrace while reading and using the client secret.

Comment: /pj-rehearse network-access-allowed to allow rehearsals of tests that have the restrict_network_access field set to false. This must be executed by an openshift org member who is not the PR author

Once you are satisfied with the results of the rehearsals, comment: /pj-rehearse ack to unblock merge. When the rehearsals-ack label is present on your PR, merge will no longer be blocked by rehearsals.
If you would like the rehearsals-ack label removed, comment: /pj-rehearse reject to re-block merging.
