In an earlier change we cached the Kubernetes metadata state to avoid additional load on a server. But this had the trade-off that we would have out-of-date information which is definitely not great for high-churn containers. So as a solution this change will make is so we _always_ query the local kubelet (which should be a very light, local query) for pod and container state. This local data is merged with the global data to provide both an up-to-date view as well as data that only comes from the master (deployments, services). The final trade-off is that we could have pods/containers that aren't initially attached to their deployment or service until the next global fetch.

(Note some of this code was lifted from DataDog/datadog-agent#285
and will certainly need consolidation later on as, potentially, a more
robust kubernetes metadata provider)
