Description of problem:
This is a clone of the doc issue OCPBUGS-9162.

Import JAR files doesn't work if the Cluster Samples Operator is not installed. This is a common issue in disconnected clusters where the Cluster Samples Operator is disabled by default. Users should not see the JAR import option if its not working correctly.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
4.9+

How reproducible:
Always, when the samples operator is not installed

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Setup a cluster without samples operator or uninstall all "Java" Builder Images (ImageStreams from the openshift namespace)
2. Switch to the Developer perspective
3. Navigate to Add > Import JAR file
4. Upload a JAR file and press Create

Actual results:
Import doesn't work

Expected results:
The Import JAR file option should not be disabled if no "Java" Builder Image (ImageStream in the openshift namespace) is available
