      Description of problem:

      When OS doesn't have default route, ovnk is experiencing problems and causing cluster to not become fully functional

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

      main

      How reproducible:

      100%

      Steps to Reproduce:

      Personally, I built an RHEL4Edge ISO with container images embedded, installed and started the VM with libvirt network configured per instructions in https://github.com/openshift/microshift/blob/main/docs/rhel4edge_iso.md#offline-mode
      
      But I think it might just work on regular RHEL by: starting MicroShift to obtain the images, stopping VM, disconnecting network, and starting it again (without running microshift-cleanup to keep the images after boot)

      Actual results:

      ovn-k doesn't fully start, blocking start of the cluster
      
      NAMESPACE                  NAME                                  READY   STATUS    RESTARTS        AGE
      openshift-ovn-kubernetes   ovnkube-master-22mqb                  3/4     Running   4 (2m39s ago)   23m
      openshift-ovn-kubernetes   ovnkube-node-xtghg                    1/1     Running   0               23m

      Expected results:

      ovn-k handles "no default route" correctly and cluster proceeds to start to become fully functional
