fix(utils): ensure webdriver timeout compatibility with urllib3 2.x

[eschutho]

SUMMARY

This PR fixes compatibility issues with urllib3 2.x in the webdriver utility by ensuring timeout values are properly converted to float types. The urllib3 library now requires strict type checking for timeout parameters, and string/invalid timeout values were causing failures.
The changes include:

• Convert all timeout-related configuration values to float type
• Handle None, "None", and "null" string values appropriately
• Add validation and logging for invalid timeout values
• Refactor the create method to reduce complexity (addressing ruff C901 error)

TESTING INSTRUCTIONS

1. Configure Superset with webdriver timeout settings in your configuration:

WEBDRIVER_CONFIGURATION = {

"timeout": "30",

"connect_timeout": "10.5",

"socket_timeout": 20,

"read_timeout": "15.0",

}

2. Run screenshot/thumbnail generation tasks that use the webdriver
3. Verify that timeout values are properly converted and no TypeError occurs
4. Check logs for any warnings about invalid timeout values
   To run the new unit tests:
   bash

pytest tests/unit_tests/utils/webdriver_test.py -v
