[feat] Use In Cluster Config to remove dependency on a kubectl container running kubectl proxy when running pod inside a K8s Cluster

[nikhil-bhat]

When running inside a pod , with service account tokem kubenetes clients can use InClusterConfig

// kubernetes gives to pods. It's intended for clients that expect to be
// running inside a pod running on kubernetes. It will return ErrNotInCluster
// if called from a process not running in a kubernetes environment.

This obliterates the need to include a kubectl container for running kubectl proxy
