Enable deployment in kubernetes

[jlpedrosa]

Some user are deploying Jellyfin in Kubernetes through helm charts, a very common way of K8s deployments.

Currently there are multiple open source Helm charts, some of them are specific to NAS servers/distributions, while others are not well maintained. Jellyfin already supports kubernetes and it's the recommended way (officially) to run it in TrueNas, see docs: https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/installation/container#truenas-scale--truecharts

It would be great if Jellyfin would provide an "official" Helm Chart for non TrueNas environments. I can contribute to the project and creaete a PR for it.

Let me know what you think.

I am also up to help work on this. Been working on one myself.

I think that is totally reasonable, done the same way as the TrueNas ones. Feel free to proceed, and we'll take it from there.

@adam-mcguinness you want to go for it? Or do you want me to do it. Happy either way.

I went ahead and forked the Jellyfin repo and added my helm chart to the deployment directory. My experience with Kubernetes is somewhat limited, so feel free to take over. This was also built for my environment utilizing a direct nfs volume mount for files instead of PVCs, and an nginx ingress controller for serving to the internet.

Added some docs in the README.md for the chart as well.

@joshuaboniface: I will create a PR with the chart. I assume you will want to take care of CI to publish the charts yourself. I can also jump to help in that one in a later pr too as well as docs.

hey @joshuaboniface! no problem! if you create the repo /jellyfin/jellylin-helm or what ever you consider I'll create the PR, TBH it simplifies the CI for the component.

@crobibero && @joshuaboniface I have the PR ready, but there's no a single commit it that repo, it doesn't allow me to fork it create PRs and I don't have write access.

[crobibero]

@jlpedrosa hah well that is fun to know! I just pushed an empty README. You should be good to go now
