Summary

This PR extends the OpenShift CI configuration for the openshift/console repository to build and promote a new container image called console-downloads from Dockerfile.downloads. The image will be published to the release payload alongside the existing console image, serving as a replacement for the cli-artifacts image that was previously used by the console-operator to distribute CLI binaries.

Changes

The PR updates four CI configuration files for the console repository across multiple release branches:

• openshift-console-main.yaml
• openshift-console-release-4.23.yaml
• openshift-console-release-5.0.yaml
• openshift-console-release-5.1.yaml

Each file receives an identical 2-line addition to the images.items list, registering the new console-downloads image build.

Related Work

This change aligns with Jira issue CONSOLE-5293 and updates the CI infrastructure for the console component to support the new artifact delivery mechanism.

Depends on openshift/console#16455

Walkthrough

This PR adds a new console-downloads image build entry to four OpenShift console CI operator configuration files (main, release-4.23, release-5.0, and release-5.1). Each file now includes a mapping from Dockerfile.downloads to the console-downloads image target in the images.items list.
