allow kubectl cmds to process files recursively, when given a dir

This PR accomplishes two things:

1. It creates a `--recursive` flag for use with certain `kubectl` commands that _currently_ do not process files beyond their first level of children, as seen in the issue https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/19767
2. It enables the ability to use the `--recursive` flag in the `kubectl` commands that currently _only_ support processing a directory up to its first level of children.
