HCP CLI is trying to directly inspect (client side) the release image,
this cause some troubles when using it on disconnected environments because:
1. the HCP CLI client should be able to directly reach the internal mirror registry and this could require additional configuration (a proxied access to the api server of the management server is not enough)
2. the HCP CLI client should explicitly consume the pull secret of the internal mirror registry
3. the HCP CLI client should explicitly consume the internal CA used to sign the TLS cert of the internal mirror registry

1. run somthing like `hcp create cluster kubevirt --name simone2 --node-pool-replicas 2 --memory 16Gi --cores 4 --root-volume-size 64 --namespace local-cluster --release-image virthost.ostest.test.metalkube.org:5000/localimages/local-release-image@sha256:f50aca7690d197bcd2037bcb88c10237455ad61811158259496031426d9f833b` where the release-image is hosted on an internal mirror registry that cannot be directly reached from the client

No client side errors since the hcp client should not directly try to inspect the release image
