**Describe the Feature Request**
it would be nice if node-*-browsers or something like node-*-browsers-preinstalled variant of the image comes with the browsers and drivers already installed so that there's no chance of a 404 installing chromedriver.

**Is your feature request related to a particular problem?**
Yes, chromedriver installation fails from time to time because they make breaking changes to the URLs: https://github.com/CircleCI-Public/browser-tools-orb/issues/104

**How will this feature request benefit CircleCI jobs using this image?**
It will help guarantee that browser tests don't fail when trying to install chromedriver.

**Describe the solution you would like to see**
Anything that's foolproof

**Describe alternatives you have considered**
Maybe for now I'll try making my own image based on `cimg/node-*browsers`, but it will be kind of a pain to have to rebuild and push another image every time we need to upgrade.
