      Description of problem:

      When we disable the hypershift-addon feature, the hypershift-addon does not get updated to reflect this by showing "Disabled" or by removing the Hypershift add-on.

      It is only after the hypershift feature is enabled again does the queued up "disabling" happens, which then destroys the ManagedClusterAddon for hypershift.

      This is confusing for the user - if I disable it, the addon remains and stays in Available state, but if I re-enable it, I no longer would want it removed ... but that's when it happens.

      In 2.8 we plan to GA this feature and therefore it will be enabled by default , but even so if the user were to manually try disabling it they would run into this issue.

      At the very least, we should doc this behaviour. Currently our doc does not cover it, it only says this is how to disable the feature after removing hosted clusters:

      https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_advanced_cluster_management_for_kubernetes/2.7/html/clusters/cluster_mce_overview#disable-hosted-control-planes 

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

      2.8.0-DOWNSTREAM-2023-03-03-17-00-20

      How reproducible:

      always

      Steps to Reproduce:

      1. enable the hypershift feature by doing 
        oc patch mce multiclusterengine -n multiclusterngine --type=json -p='[{"op": "add", "path": "/spec/overrides/components/-","value":{"name":"hypershift-preview","enabled":true}}]' 
      1. notice hypershift-addon appears and comes up ready 
        $ oc get managedclusteraddon -n local-cluster; oc get pods -n hypershift
        NAME                          AVAILABLE   DEGRADED   PROGRESSING
        application-manager           True
        cert-policy-controller        True
        cluster-proxy                 True
        config-policy-controller      True
        governance-policy-framework   True
        hypershift-addon              True        False
        iam-policy-controller         True
        work-manager                  True
        NAME                        READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
        operator-565d5868d5-scfdh   1/1     Running   0          2m7s
        operator-77cbdc6469-r595f   1/1     Running   0          2m1s 
      1. disable the hypershift feature by doing 
        oc patch mce multiclusterengine -n multiclusterngine --type=json -p='[{"op": "add", "path": "/spec/overrides/components/-","value":{"name":"hypershift-preview","enabled":false}}]' 
      1. Observe that the hypershift-addon managedcluster add-on remains showing Available, though the feature is actually Disabled. 
        $ oc get managedclusteraddon -n local-cluster; oc get pods -n hypershift
        NAME                          AVAILABLE   DEGRADED   PROGRESSING
        application-manager           True
        cert-policy-controller        True
        cluster-proxy                 True
        config-policy-controller      True
        governance-policy-framework   True
        hypershift-addon              True        False
        iam-policy-controller         True
        work-manager                  True
        NAME                        READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
        operator-77cbdc6469-4pcqd   1/1     Running   0          107s
        operator-77cbdc6469-r595f   1/1     Running   0          2m48 
      1. Now re-enable the hypershift feature by once again
      2. Observe this will remove the hypershift-addon and the operator in the ns 
        oc get managedclusteraddon -n local-cluster; oc get pods -n hypershift
        NAME                          AVAILABLE   DEGRADED   PROGRESSING
        application-manager           True
        cert-policy-controller        True
        cluster-proxy                 True
        config-policy-controller      True
        governance-policy-framework   True
        iam-policy-controller         True
        work-manager                  True
        No resources found in hypershift namespace. 

      Actual results:

      1. Disabling hypershift doesn't remove addon
      2. re-enabling hypershift addon after disabling will kill the addon and operator pods

      Expected results:

      Disabling hypershift will remove the add-on and re-enabling will not remove it
