Adding support forgetByLocator locator API #114

Description

Problem or motivation

Though different locator APIs are available like getByText(), getByRole(), getByTestId(), getByLabel(), I think there should be support for finding elements using xpath, id and classname.
I understand finding elements with these locators in not recommended but I think it will still work as a fallback strategy when no other strategies are useful.

Proposed solution

We should be able to retrieve element using getByLocator() API
e.g

getByLocator("//xapth-of-element")
getByLocator("#id-of-element")
getByLocator(".className-of-element")

Target platform

Both
