Patches ability to pull images information

[9brandon2]

Is your feature request related to a problem?
Currently not easily able to utilize a new built image tag to be used by a helm chart deployment.

Which solution do you suggest?
The patches.replace should allow the value to utilize information pulled from the images information. For example:

profiles:

• name: dev patches:

  • op: replace path: deployments.name=backend.helm.values.image.tag value: images.backend.tags[0]

  This will allow my helm chart to use the first tag in the images build.

Which alternative solutions exist?
Currently, I need to replace the backend.helm.values.image.tag with empty quotes. And I cannot use a helm chart unless I specify it directly.

Does not work: deployments:

• name: backend helm: chart: name: repo/backend

Does work: deployments:

• name: backend helm: chart: name: /full/path/to/helm/chart/backend

For some reason the second way works, but would be significantly better if I could utilize the images.backend.tags[0] information directly.
