Description

### Expected behavior
The --build-image flag is super helpful when using skaffold run, but it is not supported when using skaffold dev.
When in local development, I sometimes want to build specific images, and not all from a long list.
I'm aware it's possible to create different modules and build each, but this option is not very dynamic.
Any reason this flag is not support in the for the "skaffold dev" command?

### Actual behavior
no flag is available to use

### Information

- Skaffold version: v1.30.0
- Operating system: macOS
- Installed via: Homebrew
- Contents of skaffold.yaml:

### Steps to reproduce the behavior

1. execute skaffold dev - no --build-image flag is available
