Remove unneeded suites from QA pipelines

Nailia Iskhakova requested to merge qe-debug-failures into master

What does this MR do?

Speed up specs stage in pipelines:

  • Increase parallelisation for specs_without_cluster to improve specs spreading - before child-job min time was 8min and max child-job time was 18 min => 10 min spread VS after - min 11 min and max 15 min
  • Remove skip_live_env and orchestrated test suites from QA stage - these tests shouldn't run against GitLab in k8s
  • Increase QA specs parallelisation to 10 to be levelled with parallelisation for similar Sanity QA runs on other environments (example Staging pipeline). This is due to the fact that Reliable suite grew significantly over the last few months as Quality team promote more and more stable tests to reliable.
  • Remove Knapsack QA variables as they are deprecated now - GitLab QA automatically fetches needed Knapsack report using QA_KNAPSACK_REPORT_GCS_CREDENTIALS variable => This improves QA spec parallelisation across child-jobs. Will work on adding automatic Knapsack report in a follow up MR

Result: pipeline duration goes down from ~80mins to 30mins 🚀
