Chromedriver still creates zombie processes on middle2 #118

Description

Same symptom. A while ago we verified with FbScraper that the same code and settings running on GCP does not result in zombie process. Looks like we need an alternative.

The overall scheme should be to move chromedriver processes out of docker containers. Middle2, being a SaaS, is never meant to be used to run complex multiprocess tasks. It is better to treat headless browsers as a service accessed through an API, similar to how we use database services.
