[🐛 Bug]: Link to Chromedriver no longer accurate for newer versions of Chrome

[Lukenickerson]

What happened?

The link on the readme for Chromedriver is out of date. The latest version listed at the link provided (https://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/index.html) is only 114.0.5735.90, but Chrome is now on 124.0.x (as I write this issue).

Based on https://chromedriver.chromium.org/ I see that...

Starting with M115 the latest Chrome + ChromeDriver releases per release channel (Stable, Beta, Dev, Canary) are available at the Chrome for Testing availability dashboard.

I recommend the link on the readme be changed to point to https://googlechromelabs.github.io/chrome-for-testing/#stable

How can we reproduce the issue?

Go to the readme, and click on the link for `chromedriver(.exe)`.
