[nats] Fixes for NATS App Helm chart, fix template issues with
config.merge value

## What this PR does

This PR fixes two critical bugs in the NATS application chart
(`packages/apps/nats`) that prevented successful deployment when using
user authentication with custom configuration:

**Bug #1: YAML Parse Error with Empty config.merge**
- When users were defined but `config.merge` was empty (`{}`), the Helm
template would fail with YAML parse errors
- Fixed by adding safe existence checks before accessing
`.Values.config.merge` and preventing rendering of empty merge blocks

**Bug #2: Incorrect Config Nesting**
- When both `users` and `config.merge` were defined, custom NATS config
values (e.g., `max_payload`, `max_connections`) were incorrectly nested
as children of the `accounts` object instead of being placed at the root
NATS configuration level
- This caused NATS pods to crash with "Expected map entries for
accounts" errors
- Fixed by correcting the indentation from `nindent 12` to `nindent 10`
in the template

The related issue is #1354 

### Changes Made

**File**: `packages/apps/nats/templates/nats.yaml`

1. Line 55: Added safe existence checks for `.Values.config.merge`
2. Line 66: Added length validation to prevent rendering empty merge
objects
3. Line 67: Fixed indentation to ensure config values merge at root
level

### Impact

- Enables NATS deployments with user authentication and custom
configuration
- Fixes Stalwart mail server clustering scenarios that require NATS with
authentication
- Resolves HelmRelease failures in multi-tenant environments

### Testing

Can be tested with:
```yaml
apiVersion: apps.cozystack.io/v1alpha1
kind: NATS
metadata:
  name: test-nats
spec:
  replicas: 2
  users:
    testuser: {}
  config:
    merge:
      max_payload: 2097152
      max_connections: 500
```

Expected result: HelmRelease succeeds, NATS pods start successfully, and
configuration is valid.
