What was changed
Updated the helm chart to use a headless service for the proxy.
Why?
This will improve routing for anyone using the example helm chart. The gRPC client used by Temporal works best when it has a DNS that returns all available service IPs. There is a sophisticated client-side load balancer in that client that maintains remote health checks, failovers, and stream allocation that should not be squished through kube-proxy's ClusterIP.
