newrelic-infrastructure: needs affinity values

[roobre]

H there!
Thanks for raising your concerns. Jut wanted to let you know that we're working on EKS fargate support now. As a part of this effort, we're also adding the ability to add custom nodeAffinity items to the daemonSet :)

[roobre]

This feature was implemented in #348. Definiing global.fargate will now automatically add affinity rules to exclude the DaemonSet from fargate nodes.

in the future, this label will also enable other features for instrumenting EKS fargate, in which we're still working.

Additionally, this PR also allwos to manually define node affinity rules. However please keep in mind that if these rules are manually overriden, global.fargate will no longer add the fargate exclusion automatically.

We need this functionality too. We use newrelic to monitor only specific pods, and we do know their location. It's kind of overhead to deploy the daemonset on all the nodes.

We at TableCheck Japan use the newrelic-infrastructure chart extensively, and want to expand our usage to our mixed AWS EKS Managed Node Groups & Fargate cluster.

Please let me know if you want me to open a new MR and sign the CLA (as I see this is unsigned @freehck-codefresh).

@roobre Thank you so much, we’re going to use this immediately. Keep up the great work and we 💜 New Relic.
