vcs-sidecar image reference is embedded in the code

Right now acid embeds the vcs-sidecar image reference directly in the source code. Because I don't have the right credentials to pull this image, I need to build and push out my own vcs-sidecar image, modify the source code and then re-deploy acid. This doesn't bode well for a developer experience.

Would it be possible to somehow embed the vcs-sidecar process within acid? That way we don't have to reference and rely upon a separate docker image for all github push events.

We can probably set this in the chart and suck it out of an env var.

I started down the path of making this a global config option, only to realize that the most likely scenario is that this would be overridden per-project.

So right now, it's shaping up like this:

$ helm install acid-project --set vcsSidecar=myImage:myTag
