How to pass arguments to the browser executable?

Use case:

• [BUG] Playwright on Azure Pipeline fails microsoft/playwright#1062
• https://github.com/arjun27/playwright-github-actions/blob/2770e149bdd75408203aa2b6590e11dafec6fdc3/test-project/index.js#L19

For GitHub Actions to work with Playwright, we need to pass --no-sandbox to chromium

I think the arguments should be passed somewhere here: https://github.com/mmarkelov/jest-playwright/blob/v0.0.10/src/PlaywrightEnvironment.js#L48

@tkrotoff you can pass it with jest-playwright.config.js:

module.exports = {
	launchBrowserApp: {
		args: ['--no-sandbox']
	}
}

Note that WebKit will crash when launched with --no-sandbox, which is a valid arg for Chromium only. For now, I recommend using

args: process.env.BROWSER === 'chromium' ? ['--no-sandbox'] : []
