Add the option to bind to a different address with kubectl port-forward

[spacepluk]

Even a switch to bind to 0.0.0.0 would do the trick for me. My use case is debugging when the client needs to be in a Windows VM.

@spacepluk Would you be interested in implementing this feature?

hi there, I'm a bit swamped right now but hopefully I'll have some time next week to give it a try. I already hacked the binding address to make it work for me, so it should only be a matter of figuring out how you manage the cli parameters and try to write some decent go :)

@zedfauji any updates?

There are several issues on this feature request. #43692, #36152, #40053 and this one. I'd prefer that we follow #43692 and close others.

WDYT? @thockin

[thockin]

I don't think #43692 is what you wanted?

[xiangpengzhao]

I'm sorry, my bad. It's #43962.

MOving to #43962 as canonical bug
