Show envFrom in UI container information, matching env behavior #13901

Open inigohidalgo opened 1 week ago

Summary

Currently, if an environment variable is specified using

env:
  - name: VAR_NAME
    value: dev

it is shown in the web UI like so image

On the other hand, when populating environment variables using 

envFrom:
          - configMapRef:
              name: {{ include "components.usecase_configmap" . }}

          - secretRef:
              name: {{ include "components.usecase_secrets" . }}

This is not reflected in the UI anywhere that I can see.

Use Cases

When would you use this?

It is helpful to have this visibility on which configMaps or secretRefs are being inserted into a container's environment, it would have saved me some unnecessary debugging last week https://github.com/argoproj/argo-workflows/issues/3310#issuecomment-2454945741

The asymmetry in ENV being shown but not showing anything for envFrom is what led me to this confusion. If neither had been shown in the UI I would've found the issue faster.
