Draft: Switched the qa job in charts to pull qa image using the revision tag unless its nil, in which case it'll use the nightly tag

Vishal Patel requested to merge 1562_align_gitlab_version_with_charts into master

What does this MR do?

By default, CNG uses nightly QA image in pipelines unless ['appVersion'] is specified in values. This can lead to out of sync issues between target env and QA image. The issue is to explore if GitLab version can be extracted from test Chart deployment and then passed to GitLab QA.

This MR fetches the Revision number of the app and uses that to pull the qa image. If the revision is empty, it'll use the nightly image for testing.
