Feature Request: Sleep when no requests are received for a certain period of time

[kehralexander]

I'd like to open this feature request to keep track and discuss the already discovered potential feature of sending the deployment(s) back to sleep.

Why?

Currently deployments will stay awake until the next "bedtime" after being awoken once. This behaviour is fine if the user is just very early, but not desired if the user only works late hours.

Considerations

I guess snorlax needs a way to be in between the ingress and the deployment? A pod that just proxies all the traffic comes to mind for that.

Other

This feature might also be helpful with not going to sleep if the deployment is still in use (recieving some amounts of traffic), even if it is bedtime.
