Copy file from pod into gefyra container "--file-from"

[buschNT]

What is the new feature about?

Sometimes it is necessary to copy a file from an existing pod into the container run with gefyra. As this is similar to the exiting --env-from cli option, I imagine a similar option for copying files (directories?)?

Why would such a feature be important to you?

I am working with a setup which requires me to have a specific file from a pod/deployment which is created/mounted by k8s. Thus, I have to manually copy this file every time I create a new container with gefyra run . With an --file-from option, it would be possible to include this manual step within the run command.

Anything else we need to know?

+1 - doing the same via kubectl-exec-tar, which results in quite some work, as file-setup is different for every container

I opened a draft PR with the --file-from flag #725. @SteinRobert / @Schille maybe you can take a look provide some feedback.
