[CLOUDP-350567] Automate PR creation to release helm chart using gh helm repo

[viveksinghggits]

Summary

Per current process when we try to release a version of the helm chart we create a PR to the mongodb/helm-charts repo. Since this is manual task, it's time consuming and error prone.
This PR tries to automate that manual task.

Proof of Work

The successful run here created the PR on helm chart repo successfully.

MCK 1.6.0 Release Notes

New Features

• MongoDBCommunity: Added support to configure custom cluster domain via newly introduced spec.clusterDomain resource field. If spec.clusterDomain is not set, environment variable CLUSTER_DOMAIN is used as cluster domain. If the environment variable CLUSTER_DOMAIN is also not set, operator falls back to cluster.local as default cluster domain.
• Helm Chart: Introduced two new helm fields operator.podSecurityContext and operator.securityContext that can be used to configure securityContext for Operator deployment through Helm Chart.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed parsing of the customEnvVars Helm value when values contain = characters.

[MaciejKaras]

Code generally looks good, but I have two general comments:

• instead of logging error and returning the error code, it's easier to just repackage the error and raise it again:

except GithubException as e:
    raise Exception(f"ERROR: Could not create Pull Request. GitHub API returned an error: {e.status}, details: {e.data}, original error: {e}")

• the main method does a little too much. It should only handle flags parsing and validation. After that call nested method with validated args that does the hard work.
