= Improved startup speed with updated init container image pull policy for {product-short} Helm Chart

With this update, the pull policy for the init container image of the {product-short} Helm Chart was changed from `Always` to `IfNotPresent`. This change reduces the repeated download time during startup of the container image, which is approximately 2.5 GB, thereby significantly improving startup speed for users.

Description of problem:

In the Red Hat Developer Hub Helm chart (1.4.1 and earlier), the top level values.yaml file includes:

initContainers:

name: install-dynamic-plugins
imagePullPolicy: Always
As the container is is about 2.5 G-bytes in size, forcing the full download of the image slows startup time.

I suggest changing "Always" to "IfNotPresent" which is the setting for all other images in the Helm chart.

Shorter startup time.{}

Always
