[🚀 Feature]: Allow multiple nodes of the same type in Helm configuration

[adriannowak]

Feature and motivation

Currently, we define browser nodes in the Helm configuration like this:

        chromeNode:
          replicas: 3
          nodeMaxSessions: 3
        firefoxNode:
          enabled: false
        edgeNode:
          enabled: false

This setup is limited, as it doesn’t allow us to configure multiple versions of the same browser.
To increase flexibility, I propose extending the configuration by using arrays:

        chromeNodes:
         - replicas: 3
           extraEnvironmentVariables:
            - name: SE_NODE_STEREOTYPE
              value: '{"browserName":"chrome","platformName":"linux","app":"app1"}'
         - replicas: 3
           extraEnvironmentVariables:
            - name: SE_NODE_STEREOTYPE
              value: '{"browserName":"chrome","platformName":"linux","app":"app2"}'

With this pattern we can configure dedicated pool for apps, override configurations etc.

Usage example

To test the UI of the same feature across different browser versions

It looks like a complex template to be created. However, it is possible
