Support option for running @QuarkusIntegrationTest tests against deployed service

[snowdrop-bot]

Description

As of now, if we start the @QuarkusIntegrationTests through maven, the artifact is started and test are executed against this artifact. This might be problematic in situations where we need other dependent services, e.g. a database, messaging system,... and cannot use DinD (and, in return, Testcontainers).

Implementation ideas

A possible solution to this problem would be to first deploy the artefact (e.g. in a k8s/openshift cluster) and then execute the tests so that they run against the deployed resources (e.g. by specifying a root URL to access the deployment).
