Extend SelfMonitoring to allow non-default-namespace Prometheus instances to scrape metric data

Customers with existing cluster monitoring solutions can't fully use the native Self Monitoring capability as the provided NetworkPolicies only permit monitoring (Prometheus) traffic from the "expected" default namespaces (openshift-monitoring / openshift-user-workload-monitoring). A customer with a defined/customised Prometheus instance in a different namespace will fail to scrape metrics from AIOps pods that already have Network Policies; adding a new NetworkPolicy can't be done globally across the AIOps namespace because pods that previously didn't have one will now fail in normal communications. Several options are possible to enable this:

1) (preferred) Tag all AIOps pods that expose metrics with a specific label so that customers can add their own NetworkPolicies to permit metric scraping by targetting that tag
2) Provide documentation on all deployed NetworkPolicies provided by AIOps to allow Customers to identify and modify to enable monitoring by non-default-namespace Prometheus instances
