[release-v2.11] Move helm charts from rancher/charts to /charts dir

Placeholder Pratik Jagrut requested to merge github/fork/pratikjagrut/rancher-charts-release-automation-v2.11 into rancher-charts-release/v2.11

PR Description

We're integrating the Auto Chart Bumps feature into the System Upgrade Controller (SUC) repository to streamline chart maintenance and align with Rancher's release structure.

Why This Change?

  • Currently, the SUC chart resides in rancher/charts, but due to strict requirements, we need a separate repo for managing SUC chart.
  • One key requirement is maintaining three active release branches for Rancher, which makes it difficult to continue hosting the chart in the rancher/charts repository.
  • Instead of creating a new repository, we've decided to host the SUC chart in a dedicated branch within the existing SUC repo.
  • We'll use the same branch for all three active releases instead of three branches.

What’s Changing?

  • A new branch, rancher-charts-release/v2.11, will be used exclusively for SUC charts.
  • All new PRs for the Rancher SUC chart will be created in this branch instead of rancher/charts.
  • This branch will only contain the SUC chart files, not the SUC source code.
  • The auto chart bump mechanism will automatically watch this branch and update charts.
