Install CP4D using private registry in OCP with unqualified-search-registries configuration

If you are planning the installation of CP4D, but the customer has OCP configured with unqualified-search-registries (called also "image short names" and configured in image registry via containerRuntimeSearchRegistries). So, during installation, you should have to leave empty the PRIVATE_REGISTRY_LOCATION environment variable  as all images will be referred without registry host; for example, normally you pull an image form custom private registry as

registry-toisp01b.intesasanpaolo.com/cp/cpd/tekton-runtime-worker@sha256:93b2ccd3049eeef00a66dd803aa9c93321dd2e0fc5987f40b2a747fa7379c37e

but in the customer environment we have to indicate the image as

cp/cpd/tekton-runtime-worker@sha256:93b2ccd3049eeef00a66dd803aa9c93321dd2e0fc5987f40b2a747fa7379c37e

Actually it's not possible to leave empty the PRIVATE_REGISTRY_LOCATION environment variable during installation.

Furthermore, through the creation of the ImageContentSourcePolicy, the images are still referenced by referring to the source icr.io and cp.icr.io, forcing the client to add them to the allowed sources in image.config.

The idea is to have the possibility to proceed with an installation where the images are not qualified, respecting the configurations imposed by policies in the client's OCP clusters.
