[ENH] - Add ability to scale nodes to zero #31

Description

@kcpevey

Feature description

We currently have to set a defined number of nodes that are always available. I would like the ability to have nodes scale down when they aren't in use.

Value and/or benefit

Greatly reduce operational costs of the platform and also enable it scale as needed.

Anything else?

Note: I'm working on AWS GovCloud.

    TBC - may be dropped due to a prototype created by Brandon over the weekend that could potentially address the issue

    Update - spoke with Kim and this should be done - to be picked up

    This is currently Blocked due to the following:

    1. feat(chart): add opt-in enableInTreeAutoscaling support #35 (Pending CR and merging)
    2. Then work to update the config in our deployments to take advantage of this - currently we have minReplicas=maxReplicas=4

    Further action may also be required

    @oldsj just to confirm, is #41 a blocker/pre-req for this issue to be unblocked?
    Or can this issue now be unblocked and moved into the backlog to be worked on now that the previously blocked issue is resolved (although I added a comment above with a 2nd dependent action from someones feedback and I'm not sure if this is still needed to be done)
