Host the Keptn in K3D demo

[oleg-nenashev]

Feature Request

@agardnerIt has recently created a new demo for Keptn that does not require K8s. It would be good to make it official to simplify adoption by users. So I suggest hosting it in Keptn repos. https://github.com/keptn/keptn.github.io/pull/1073 for the documentation update

One concern from my side.

Going with KinD would be a second option for the quickstart: (1) KinD and (2) K3d. This makes it even more difficult for the end-user because the user does not know which one to follow.

Shouldn't we focus on one approach; either KinD or K3d?

@johannes-b actually my demo is no longer using KinD. I found it to be too flaky. My demo also uses k3d the only difference really between the two creation options is that mind bundles k3d and helm inside the container then uses the k3d in the container to create the cluster. The other option mandates that the user installs k3d themselves.

When the docker run command is executed, the first thing that happens is k3d cluster create...: https://github.com/agardnerIT/thekindkeptn/blob/c9abe99649bcc28705f2bd390d892d4adf8a7b75/install_script.sh#L36
