Enable workload identity without changing Cloud Credential Operator credentials mode in RHOCP4.

2. What is the nature and description of the request?
->
To use workload identity, Manual Mode for Cloud Credential Operator has to be set [1]

Customer tested this and shared below observations -

On an azure cluster, workload identity is installed following the official documentation [2]. Then reverted the cloudcredential mode from Manual back to Passthrough.

Customers were able to use workload identity while having Passthrough mode

3. Why does the customer need this? (List the business requirements here)

Customer thinks, Cloud Credential mode and the use of workload identity are orthogonal concepts, they should be able to use it without using Manual mode.
