/assign openshift-ci-robot

The upstream Kubernetes NoExecuteTaintManager serial test applies
NoExecute taints to worker nodes where its test pods are scheduled.
This evicts all pods on those nodes that lack a matching toleration,
including metrics-server replicas. When both metrics-server pods are
evicted simultaneously, the metrics API (an aggregated API proxied
through kube-apiserver) returns 503 for ~25-30s until replacement
pods become ready.

With 3 worker nodes and metrics-server running 2 replicas on 2 of
them, there is a ~22% chance (2/9) that both test pods land on the
metrics-server nodes, causing both replicas to be evicted at once.
The existing P99-based disruption threshold does not account for
this because serial jobs are a small fraction of total runs in the
historical data, so the P99 is dominated by non-serial jobs that
never encounter this test. The result is a very low baseline (~0-1s)
with 5s of grace, which cannot absorb a 25-30s deterministic outage.

This is not a product bug — the NoExecuteTaintManager test is
intentionally designed to evict pods without tolerations. Filter out
disruption intervals that overlap with the NoExecuteTaintManager test
window so this expected disruption is not counted against the
threshold.
