test-infra: presubmits were not triggering for kubernetes/kubernetes

What happened:

When a PR is pushed | opened in Kubernetes we’re not seeing jobs trigger, just the automatic github statuses for required jobs like:

pull-kubernetes-conformance-kind-ga-only-parallel Expected — Waiting for status to be reported

If you comment /test all manually jobs are triggered and run as expected.

What you expected to happen:

Tests should start when PRs that do not need ok-to-test are opened / pushed

How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible):

Push to or open a PR in github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes

Please provide links to example occurrences, if any:

Anything else we need to know?:

Seems to be happening to all new PRs in this repo at least. /area prow

About this issue

That alert is a fairly standard thing but requires kube-state-metrics to be set up: https://github.com/kubernetes/kube-state-metrics
