      Description of problem:

          Alerts with non-standard severity labels are sent to Telemeter.

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

          All supported versions

      How reproducible:

          Always

      Steps to Reproduce:

          1. Create an always firing alerting rule with severity=foo.
          2. Make sure that telemetry is enabled for the cluster.
          3.
          

      Actual results:

          The alert can be seen on the telemeter server side.

      Expected results:

          The alert is dropped by the telemeter allow-list.

      Additional info:

      Red Hat operators should use standard severities: https://github.com/openshift/enhancements/blob/master/enhancements/monitoring/alerting-consistency.md#style-guide
      Looking at the current data, it looks like ~2% of the alerts reported to Telemter have an invalid severity.
