Help message of `kn func run` is misleading

[rhuss]

kn func run -h
Run the function locally

Runs the function locally in the current directory or in the directory
specified by --path flag. The function must already have been built with the 'build' command.

What actually does locally mean ? Usually I would say, this would mean to execute the project locally on the Desktop but without Docker (like with npm run). But here it is meant to run in a Docker daemon which usually is not considered to be "local" (and in fact, on Windows or macOs Docker always runs in another VM). Not sure how to call it, but maybe "Run function image locally" ? (in contrast "Run function in the cluster")

Maybe this is just classical nit-picking, feel free to close the issue if you don't see this as relevant.

Yes, but users are abstracted away from that, aren't they (I use only Linux)?

sometimes yes, sometimes not. E.g. when using minikube your VM has an extra IP to reach the docker daemon (via TCP socket). Still I wonder how one could differentiate between 'local local' and 'local docker' :)
