Create an Ingress configuration option in the Helm Chart

[MattG57]

To add an ingress option to your Helm chart, it's generally better to include it within the Helm chart itself rather than deploying a separate ingress.yaml. This gives you several advantages:

Better integration with your application's configuration
The ability to enable/disable ingress through values.yaml
Templating capabilities to customize the ingress based on environment or other parameters

Here's how you can approach this:

Create an ingress.yaml template in your chart's templates directory
Add ingress configuration options in your values.yaml file
Use conditionals in the template to make the ingress optional
