[JENKINS-70734] Add an optional agent type to declarative Pipeline

[jenkins-infra-bot]

please enable a feature of optional selection of the agent type. So the same job could run according to the selected type as a parameter, something like that:

  when {
        expression { params.AGENT_TYPE == 'kubernetes' }
    }
  agent {
        kubernetes {defaultContainer 'my_k8s_template'}
    }
  when {
        expression { params.AGENT_TYPE == 'label' }
    }
    agent {
        label 'my_label'
    }
