Single operator in non default channel opm alpha bundle build channel issue

[J0zi]

Hi,
looks like a bug
opm alpha bundle build --directory 0.6.1 --package etcd -t kind-registry:5000/test-operator/etcd:v0.6.1 -b docker INFO[0000] Bundle channels information not provided, inferring from parent package directory Error: error interpreting channels, please manually input channels instead

source: https://github.com/J0zi/community-operators/blob/opm-issue/upstream-community-operators/etcd/etcd.package.yaml

as you see, it has a channel

`channels:

• currentCSV: etcdoperator.v0.6.1
  name: alpha
• currentCSV: etcdoperator.v0.9.4
  name: singlenamespace-alpha
• currentCSV: etcdoperator.v0.9.4-clusterwide
  name: clusterwide-alpha
  defaultChannel: singlenamespace-alpha
  packageName: etcd`

opm version 1.13

This is an awkward situation where the naming of the CSV is not aligned with what is specified in the package.yaml. You are right that etcdoperator.v0.6.1 should have a channel alpha and should be inferrable. However, inference looks at the CSV.name field which specifies etcdoperator-community.v0.6.1 as the csv name which is not referred directly/indirectly by the package.yaml and therefore the inference failed. The only place where CSV specifies etcdoperator.v0.6.1 is in the alm-status-descriptors label and is not reliable source of inference.

I don't think this is a bug for the current implementation, but we might need to think about other ways to infer if necessary.
