* Feat: Support Running Sidecard with a Command. This PR addresses issue #2448 . Some containers may not have entry points, if this is the case they would need to be run using a command. This change extends the definition of sidecar so that there is an optional command field. If the field is present then the container will be run using that command. This is a two line change that is fully backward compatible.
