As ztunnel aims to transparently encrypt and route users traffic, we need a mechanism to capture all traffic entering and leaving "mesh" pods.
This is a security critical task: if the ztunnel can be bypassed, authorization policies can be bypassed.

Redirection must meet these requirements:
* All traffic *egressing* a pod in the mesh should be redirected to the node-local ztunnel on port 15001.
