Add NFR scale test to GitHub actions pipeline (#2024)

Problem:
Scale test is not part of Github actions pipeline

Solution:
- Add NFR scale test to GitHub actions pipeline along other NFR tests.
- Increase the size of the cluster used for NFR tests, as the scale
  test requires bigger size.

Testing:
- Successfully run with NGINX -- #2002
- Successfully run with NGINX Plus -- #2017

Some scale test issues were discovered:
- #2023
- #2009

Closes #1927
