kubelet: imagegc: exempt sandbox image
The image GC logic currently does not consider the sandbox image to be in-use by pods, since it isn't explicitly listed in the pod spec. However, it is trivially in-use if there are any pods running on the node.
This change adds logic to exempt the sandbox image from GC by always considering it as in-use.
**Reviewer Note**
I am changing `(m *kubeGenericRuntimeManager) GetImageRef` to return the ID always rather than the first tag if it exists. Seemed ok to me. Makes some error messages a little less readable in that the ID will be printed and not the tag. Just wanted to see what reviewers think about this.
