The local redirection should only be in effect when local target pods are available. Fix the issue by only setting the redirect when the LRP service has associated backends.

Fix issue in Local Redirect Policies where traffic was dropped when no local pods were available to be redirected to. In these scenarios the traffic should have been processed as if the Local Redirect Policy did not exist.

The fix lgtm, except the missing case for AddressMatcher LRP.

Comment thread pkg/loadbalancer/redirectpolicy/controller.go
Add a failing test case to show that we incorrectly set redirects for
a service even when there's no local pods we can redirect to.
