Issue details

If we have insecure registry (e.g. harbor installed in minikube) - we can not install helm chart "oci://" because it is using https://

The error will be Error: Get "https://.../v2/.../tags/list": http: server gave HTTP response to HTTPS client

There is an option in helm --plain-http
https://helm.sh/docs/helm/helm_install/

Please do implement

Affected area/feature

The usage can be:

new k8s.helm.v4.Chart(
  'app',
  {
    name: 'app',
    namespace: 'app',
    chart: 'oci://oci.registry/helm-charts/app',
    plainHttp: true, // <--- here
  },
  { dependsOn: [appNamespace] }
);

Thanks for reporting this issue and a suggested API change. We currently hardcode plainHTTP to be false (ref), so we'll need to expose this as a setting. We'll add this to our backlog to work on.
