Add --skip-logs and --skip-events flags to kubectl cluster-info dump

[rjbrown57]

What would you like to be added?

Add two flags to kubectl cluster-info dump:

• --skip-logs: Do not retrieve pod logs.
• --skip-events: Do not retrieve Events.

Both flags would default to false, preserving existing behavior.

Examples:

kubectl cluster-info dump --skip-logs
kubectl cluster-info dump --skip-events
kubectl cluster-info dump --skip-logs --skip-events

Why is this needed?

kubectl cluster-info dump currently always retrieves events and logs for every
selected namespace. In some environments this:

• makes the dump substantially slower and larger.
• collects potentially sensitive application log data unnecessarily.
• prevents callers from creating a resource-state-only diagnostic bundle.

Proposed behavior

• Existing behavior remains unchanged when neither flag is supplied.
• --skip-logs avoids all pod log API requests and does not create log files.
• --skip-events avoids all Event list requests and does not create event files.

kubectl cluster-info dump is supposed to dump the info of the cluster. If we exclude events and logs, what useful information left?.
