Helm Wait Plugin

This is a Helm plugin allowing to introduce wait conditions, e.g. in CI/CD pipelines before running integration tests, checking if all changes of a Helm install/ugrade step have been applied. It differs from the Helm wait option in that it checks if all pods of a stateful set or deployment have been replaced and are up and running.

The implementation of this plugin is inspired by the Helm Diff plugin and uses large portions of it for computing the diff between revisions of releases, so a lot of credits go to the contributors of that repository.
