How do I set an image pull timeout in OpenShift 4?

Issue

In OpenShift 3, a user was able to set the image-pull-progress-deadline kubelet argument as described in this KCS solution. What this argument controls is how much time may pass without any image pulling progress made before the image pulling will be cancelled. The default is set to 1 minute, which may not be sufficient time to pull very large images.

In OpenShift 4, there is no ability to implement image pull timeouts. That is because this setting is particular to the Docker runtime, and in OCP 4 we use the CRI-O runtime, which does not have an image pull timeout flag or argument.
