This PR addresses the issue of downtime during Kubernetes node drains for services like silo and lapis.

Changes:

  1. Configurable Replicas:
    • Added replicas.silo to values.yaml and values.schema.json.
    • Updated silo-deployment.yaml to use this value instead of being hardcoded to 1.
  2. PodDisruptionBudgets (PDB):
    • Added a new pdb section to values.yaml for website, backend, silo, and lapis.
    • Created new PDB templates for these services.
    • Default setting is maxUnavailable: 1, which allows node drains even with 1 replica (causing downtime) but ensures availability if replicas are scaled to >1.
  3. Pod Anti-Affinity:
    • Added preferredDuringSchedulingIgnoredDuringExecution anti-affinity rules to loculus-backend, loculus-website, lapis-deployment, and silo-deployment templates.
    • This encourages Kubernetes to schedule replicas on different nodes to maximize availability, without strictly enforcing it (which could block scheduling in small clusters).

🚀 Preview: Add preview label to enable

- Makes `silo` replica count configurable in `values.yaml` (default: 1).
- Adds `PodDisruptionBudget` templates for `website`, `backend`, `silo`, and `lapis` with configurable `maxUnavailable` (default: 1).
- Adds `podAntiAffinity` (preferred) to deployment templates for `website`, `backend`, `silo`, and `lapis` to encourage scheduling on different nodes.
- Updates `values.schema.json` to include new configuration options.
