Rename "auto" subcommands to "image" This means all the sub-subcommands can drop the `image-` prefix, making them shorter and more fluent. E.g., flux create image policy rather than flux create auto image-policy Signed-off-by: Michael Bridgen <michael@weave.works> 4 years ago			`## flux export image`
Add subcommands for image-repository This adds all the standard subcommands for the ImageRepository type. Following `source`, I have put them under a namespace: `auto`, referring to automation. NB For `create` I use controllerutil.CreateOrUpdate, which looks to me like a slightly more rounded version of the upsert* funcs. Signed-off-by: Michael Bridgen <michael@weave.works> 4 years ago
