enabling nightly builds - nightly devnets & loadtests

[gatsbyz]

Description

Basic devops overview for Nighly Devnets

• A GH workflow in the Edge repo will be called by the nightly build workflow, is should create and start a new Edge devnet using big instances, with 4 validators only, with the bridge configured ideally.
• After the network is progressing a new load test will be started, the results of the test will be reported to the #edge-becnhmarking-results channel and to DD.
• After the load testing has finished, the devnet should be destroyed.

some notes on how it’s working now

• link to manually triggered run action workflow
• on the AWS edge-devnet env, the deployment name is nightly01 and the name continually used for the nightly builds
• devnet is built using our public terraform configs, on the separate branch made for the ephemeral nightly builds.
  *polygon-edge is built from HEAD .

Doesn't the block_gas_limit looks a bit low for the big machines @gatsbyz?

@vcastellm should i double this value? block_gas_limit: 100_000_000
