Epic Goal

Allow users to install the Multi Cluster Engine (MCE) using the Assisted Service OLM operator plugin framework

Why is this important?

One of the main use cases of the Agent based installer is to deploy the first OpenShift cluster that will then run the Multi Cluster Engine (MCE) to deploy other clusters for the customer.
While deploying the MCE post installation is certainly doable, it increases the cost of operations by needing separate mechanisms to install and track the progress that require extra involvement with a cluster that is only being deployed to run the Multi Cluster Engine.
It will be possible to automate the MCE operator installation steps described in https://github.com/openshift/installer/blob/master/docs/user/agent/mce-integration.md
