fix: local chart with external dependencies error when repos configured (#2433)
* fix: local chart with external dependencies error when repos configured

When helm repo update was run, the code unconditionally set skipRefresh=true
for all builds, causing helm dep build --skip-refresh to fail for local charts
with external dependencies not listed in helmfile.yaml.

Now only non-local charts (precomputed skipRefresh=true) get --skip-refresh,
while local charts preserve their skipRefresh=false to allow refreshing repos
for external dependencies.

Fixes #2431

* test: update snapshot tests for local chart refresh behavior

Local charts now run helm repo update during helm dep build to support
external dependencies not listed in helmfile.yaml (fixes #2431).

* refactor: remove redundant skipRefresh assignment

The condition 'if didUpdateRepo && r.skipRefresh { r.skipRefresh = true }'
was a no-op since setting true to true has no effect. The precomputed
skipRefresh value from prepareChartForRelease is already correct, so we
simply preserve it without modification.

* refactor: only call UpdateRepo when at least one build uses --skip-refresh

Avoid redundant helm repo update when all builds have skipRefresh=false,
as each helm dep build will refresh repos itself in that case.

* test: update release_template_inheritance snapshot for skipRefresh optimization

UpdateRepo is now only called when at least one build uses --skip-refresh,
so local charts without skipRefresh no longer trigger the global repo update.

* test: add regression test for issue #2431

Add TestIssue2431_LocalChartWithExternalDependency to verify that local
charts with external dependencies on repos NOT in helmfile.yaml work
correctly. The test ensures:
- UpdateRepo is NOT called when all builds have skipRefresh=false
- helm dep build does NOT receive --skip-refresh flag

* test: add integration test for issue #2431

Add test case to verify that local charts with repos configured in
helmfile.yaml work correctly. The test ensures that helmfile template
does not fail with 'no cached repository' or 'no repository definition'
errors when:
- helmfile.yaml has non-OCI repos configured
- Local chart is used (which may have external dependencies not in helmfile.yaml)

* test: update issue #2431 integration test to match issue scenario

Add external dependency (karma chart from wiremind repo) to local chart's
Chart.yaml, matching the exact scenario described in issue #2431 where:
- helmfile.yaml has repos configured (vector)
- Local chart depends on a repo NOT in helmfile.yaml (wiremind)

* revert: remove unit tests and restore e2e snapshot outputs

Remove pkg/state/run_helm_dep_builds_skip_refresh_test.go and restore
chart_need snapshot outputs to original state. The fix is verified by
the integration test for issue #2431.

Remove chart_need snapshot outputs so they can be regenerated by tests.

* test: update snapshot outputs for skipRefresh optimization

- Remove TestIssue2431_LocalChartWithExternalDependency unit test
- Update chart_need outputs: local chart runs helm dep build with repo refresh
- Update release_template_inheritance: no deps so no repo refresh output

* fix: update test comments and names per review feedback

- Update TestRunHelmDepBuilds_MultipleBuilds comment to remove reference
  to removed didUpdateRepo variable
- Rename test case to accurately describe condition being tested
  (build with skipRefresh=true instead of misleading 'non-local chart')
