[🐛 Bug]: Error when setting selenium options (SE_OPTS)

[erik-rnbt]

What happened?

Docker Selenium Hub is not starting when using selenium options.

I tried upgrading to a newer version of selenium but the hub cant handle the SE_OPTS anymore.

Command used to start Selenium Grid with Docker (or Kubernetes)

docker run -d -p 4442-4444:4442-4444 \
-e "TZ=Europe/Berlin" -e SE_OPTS="--reject-unsupported-caps true" \
--name selenium-hub selenium/hub:latest

Relevant log output

Hi, for option --reject-unsupported-caps, let's use the ENV var SE_REJECT_UNSUPPORTED_CAPS. By default it is false
Updated README for the usage.
