[Feature request] support for --skip-refresh when updating helm chart dependencies #8413

@muzalevs

Description

@muzalevs

In our project we use a separate Helm library chart for re-usable templates. Every other chart has it defined as a dependency, e.g.:

dependencies:
  - name: template-lib
    version: 0.1.0
    repository: file://../template-lib

In many our charts it is the only dependency. It enforces us to have skipDependencyUpdate: false, but also updates cache of remote helm repositories every time we run deploy, which sometimes is time-consuming.

We would like skaffold to be able to pass --skip-refresh option to the helm dependency update command. This way it would be possible for users to skip refreshing cache of every repo from helm repo list.
