When we want to use a different registry than Docker Hub we currently
have to override each image repository individually:
```yaml
server:
image:
repository: registry.example.com/temporalio/server
admintools:
image:
repository: registry.example.com/temporalio/admin-tools
web:
image:
repository: registry.example.com/temporalio/ui
```
This requires duplicating the registry in multiple places. This change
adds a global registry setting so the same result is achieved with:
```yaml
global:
imageRegistry: registry.example.com
```
This becomes especially useful when the Temporal chart is used as a
dependency in another chart. When all sub-charts honour
global.imageRegistry the installer only has to set the registry once.
This change is non-breaking and backwards compatible. If
global.imageRegistry is not set the chart behaves exactly as before.

What was changed
This PR adds support for configuring a global image registry via:
When set, this value is used as a prefix for all Temporal chart container images.
When unset/empty, image rendering remains unchanged from current behavior.
Why?
Today, using a private/mirrored registry requires overriding multiple repositories separately, which is repetitive and error-prone.
A global registry setting is a common Helm pattern and simplifies installation, especially for air-gapped/private registry environments/dependency-chart use-cases where we'd want one registry override in one place
This change is backward-compatible and non-breaking:
if global.imageRegistry is not set, behavior is exactly as before.
Checklist
Closes [Feature Request] Support global.imageRegistry in temporal chart #967
How was this tested:
Helm unit tests:
helm unittest charts/temporal
Result: all suites pass (15/15), all tests pass (188/188)
Render checks with valid chart values:
Without global.imageRegistry: images render as current defaults (temporalio/...)
With global.imageRegistry=registry.example.com: all chart images render with registry.example.com/ prefix
Any docs updates needed?
values.yaml was updated to include and describe global.imageRegistry.
A README values table update could be added as a follow-up.
