…/serve/train) When running cog run, cog predict, cog serve, or cog train, the build was unnecessarily adding Cog metadata labels to the image. This added overhead (pip freeze, git info, base image layer inspection, extra Docker build step) for images that are only used locally and never distributed. This was a regression introduced in 1525f7f which replaced resolver.BuildBase() (no labels) with resolver.Build() (adds labels) for the serve/run/predict/train code paths. Adds a SkipLabels option to BuildOptions that short-circuits the label-adding phase in image.Build() when set.

This was a regression introduced in 1525f7f (
feat(coglet): IPC bridge enhancements) which replacedresolver.BuildBase()(no labels) withresolver.Build()(adds labels) for the serve/run/predict/train code paths. The originalimage.BuildBase()just built the Docker image and returned — no labels were added.Changes
