CI failures on openshift-assisted-installer unit (breaking "misc" pipelines)
We've recently seen CI failures on openshift-assisted-installer unit:
We had an occurence on nightly runs for an upgrade from sylva 1.5 to 1.6: https://gitlab.com/sylva-projects/sylva-core/-/jobs/14557003743
And we had this on an MR targetting main (details below) https://gitlab.com/sylva-projects/sylva-core/-/jobs/14576340576
```

The `assisted-service` pod containers are subject to numerous restarts.
This seems to possibly be due to a postgres issue (?):
```
k -n multicluster-engine logs assisted-service-86d89c78b4-5zqtq postgres
=== PostgreSQL Startup Check ===
Data directory version: 12
Container image version: 13
Version mismatch detected - enabling pg_upgrade (hardlink mode)
========== $PGDATA upgrade: 12 -> 13 ==========
Can't read /etc/scl/conf/rh-postgresql12, rh-postgresql12 is probably not installed.
===> Initialize new data directory; we will migrate to that.
