Title: Let KEDA functions scale to zero by default

Why

The KEDA deployer currently defaults minReplicaCount to 1 when generating the HTTPScaledObject. That keeps at least one function pod running even when there is no traffic, so functions cannot scale to zero by default.

KEDA's HTTP add-on supports waking the function back up through the interceptor, and users who want to avoid cold-start latency can still set scale.min: 1 explicitly.

Fixes #3924.

What changed

  • Default the KEDA deployer's generated replicas.min value to 0.
  • Keep honoring an explicit deploy.options.scale.min value.
  • Add regression coverage for both the default and configured minimum replica behavior.

Testing

  • go test -count=1 ./pkg/keda

Hi @Tushar-Khandelwal-2004. Thanks for your PR.

I'm waiting for a knative member to verify that this patch is reasonable to test. If it is, they should reply with /ok-to-test on its own line. Until that is done, I will not automatically test new commits in this PR, but the usual testing commands by org members will still work.

Regular contributors should join the org to skip this step.

Once the patch is verified, the new status will be reflected by the ok-to-test label.

I understand the commands that are listed here.
