Background info

Epic Goal
The user no longer needs to manually retrieve config values when creating a ConfigMap for Azure and AWS.

Why?
Currently the user needs to run a lot of extra commands to retrieve values in order to create the ConfigMap that communicates between Azure/AWS and the OSC operator. We want to simplify this process.

In addition to removing the steps for retrieving each of these values, they will also be removed for the ConfigMap yaml manifests the user needs to create. These config values will be automatically populated behind the scenes.

AWS
Remove AMI ID retrieval.

New YAML:
apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
name: peer-pods-cm
namespace: openshift-sandboxed-containers-operator
data:
CLOUD_PROVIDER: "aws"
VXLAN_PORT: "9000"
PODVM_INSTANCE_TYPE: "t3.small"
PROXY_TIMEOUT: "5m"

Azure
Remove image ID, VNET name, subnet ID, NSG ID.

New YAML:
apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
name: peer-pods-cm
namespace: openshift-sandboxed-containers-operator
data:
CLOUD_PROVIDER: "azure"
VXLAN_PORT: "9000"
AZURE_INSTANCE_SIZE: "Standard_D8as_v5"
PROXY_TIMEOUT: "5m"
DISABLECVM: "true"

IMPORTANT
The YAML files listed here do not include the new field added for Instance size/type connected to TELCODOCS-1419. Make sure when working on this to take that into account so we don't end up with conflicts.

Additional info
Emanuele is currently working on this. He believes it will be done in time for 1.5. He's working on the Azure side, but says once that's done, it's a simple thing to apply it to AWS as well. Make sure to follow up in the future to verify.
