I finally got this to work.
I believe that my issue was that when I thought I had uploaded the ISO, the ISO wasn't
actually being uploaded successfully.
I tried to upload various ISOs to different Storage Domains, and eventually noticed that
in a couple of cases, I would see a status bar that slowly incremented over time
indicating the percentage of the upload complete - whereas before, there would be no
status bar, and the oVirt Manager would indicate that the ISO had just been uploaded
completely.
I was able to "replicate" this status bar with the RHEL ISO, and now my VM is
booting to that ISO fine.
Problem resolved.

More details here:
I just tested this (new) VM now on a CentOS 7 ISO.
That worked perfectly fine.
But as soon as I tried to attach the RHEL 8 Boot ISO, it did not
work.
The specific error I'm seeing is:
Boot failed: Could not read from CDROM (code 0095).
