Description
### Existing documentation URL(s)
https://developers.cloudflare.com/tunnel/deployment-guides/kubernetes/#2-create-pods-for-the-web-app
### What changes are you suggesting?
When following the guide it is mentioned that you should make kubernetes service of type `LoadBalancer`. This seems overkill and could incur more cost to the users following the guide. Is a loadbalancer really needed or would a `ClusterIP` service be sufficient? They just need to reachable from the `cloudflared` deployment, right?
