Adds an env-var-gated mode that lets the plugin emit per-test rows
correctly when the user's suite is running on BrowserStack's load-
testing infrastructure (where the test runs against a local Selenium
hub rather than the Automate hub).
src/utils/helper.js
- isLoadTestingSession() + getLtsSessionId() helpers, driven by the
BROWSERSTACK_LTS_SESSION_ID env var (or BROWSERSTACK_LTS=true|1
for local testing).
- getCloudProvider() returns 'browserstack' under LTS so events
flow through the integrations.browserstack.* path.
- getIntegrationsObject() overrides session_id with the LTS env id
and forces product='loadTesting' under LTS.
src/testObservability.js
- getProductMapForBuildStartCall() sets automate=false + lts=true
under LTS so build.source aligns with the LTS contract.
All LTS code paths are gated on helper.isLoadTestingSession().
Non-LTS Nightwatch runs see zero behavior change.
