Description

Related: #3712

Current pod selection logic for port-forwarding excludes images that aren't built by Skaffold. This is similar to log tailing and they both use the same pod selector.

Steps to repro: #5067

Contributor guide

Research direction
Extend the pod selector logic in pkg/skaffold/runner/runner.go to include deployed containers not built by Skaffold, similar to how log tailing was handled.
