[🚀 Feature]: Support for Chromium

[bonigarcia]

Feature and motivation

Modify the existing logic of the Chrome manager (./selenium-manager --browser chrome) to check Chromium (e.g., checking /usr/bin/chromium etc.) when Chrome is unavailable.

Usage example

./selenium-manager --browser chrome

... should return /usr/bin/chromium as result.browser_path if Chrome is not available but Chromium it is.

Yeah I think this should be a higher priority because it represents a breaking change from previous behavior.

Ideally, ideally, selenium manager should look for the browser the exact same way that the driver does (in the same order). Not doing so means there are weird non-backwards compatible issues.

I have just sent a PR about Edge management. This one (support for Chromium) will be next.
