Deployment or StatefulSet

[jp83]

As I'm coming up to speed on k8s, and in particular testing with kube-plex, I'm wondering if perhaps the chart should deploy Plex media server as a StatefulSet instead of a Deployment. I can across this relevant discussion that made me wonder.

helm/charts#1863

My main reasoning is the config directory that has all the metadata, watch history, and I think whatever they use to validate the claim token. Most importantly, every time I mess something up I keep having to helm --purge delete, and this wipes out the config dir, and then I have to relink the claim token. If I'm understanding correctly as a StatefulSet it would, by default, retain and reconnect to the existing PVC every time. The only thing I'm unsure of is if you can still have a NFS PVC for shared storage across other media acquisition deployments, which I guess could make you wonder if their own history should be retained as a StatefulSet as well.

@billimek I saw you in that thread as well and updated other relevant charts.
