fix: uploadedDriversPeriodicCheck should use builder endpoint

[rugggger]

TL;DR

uploadedDriversPeriodicCheck should use a builder endpoint, just as UploadBuiltDrivers does (otherwise builders with a different weka version from the dist container enter a loop RUNNING->COMPLETED->RUNNING)

Refactored driver download functionality to improve code organization and error handling.

What changed?

• Extracted driver download logic into a new downloadDriversFromBuilder function to centralize the implementation
• Renamed "DownloadVersion" exec command to "GetVersion" for better clarity
• Improved error handling and logging in the driver download process
• Fixed the legacy driver handling path to properly handle the NoWekaDriversHandling case
• Removed redundant code in the periodic check function by reusing the download function
• Enhanced logging to be more consistent and informative
