* Kubelet GracefulNodeShutdown works, but only partially handles
gracefully stopping the Kubelet. The most noticeable drawback
is that Completed Pods are left around
* Use a project like poseidon/scuttle or a similar systemd unit
as a snippet to add drain and/or delete behaviors if desired
* This reverts commit 1786e34f33.

* delete-node.service used to be used to remove nodes from the
cluster on shutdown, but its long since it last worked properly
* If there is still a desire for this concept, it can be added
with a custom snippet and with a better systemd unit
* Disable Kubelet Graceful Node Shutdown on worker nodes (enabled in
Kubernetes v1.25.0 https://github.com/poseidon/typhoon/pull/1222)
* Graceful node shutdown shutdown allows 30s for critical pods to
shutdown and 15s for regular pods to shutdown before releasing the
inhibitor lock to allow the host to shutdown
* Unfortunately, both pods and the node are shutdown at the same
time at the end of the 45s period without further configuration
options. As a result, regular pods and the node are shutdown at the
same time. In practice, enabling this feature leaves Error or Completed
pods in kube-apiserver state until manually cleaned up. This feature
is not ready for general use
* Fix issue where Error/Completed pods are accumulating whenever any
node restarts (or auto-updates), visible in kubectl get pods
* This issue wasn't apparent in initial testing and seems to only
affect non-critical pods (due to critical pods being killed earlier)
But its very apparent on our real clusters

* Kubernetes v1.25.0 moved the LocalStorageCapacityIsolationFSQuotaMonitoring
feature from alpha to beta, but it breaks Kubelet updating ConfigMaps in
Pods, as shown by conformance tests
* Kubernetes is rolling LocalStorageCapacityIsolationFSQuotaMonitoring back
to alpha so its not enabled by default, but that will require a release
* Disable the feature gate directly as a workaround for now to make
Kubernetes v1.25.0 usable

* Change the workers managed instance group to health check nodes
via HTTP probe of the kube-proxy port 10256 /healthz endpoints
* Advantages: kube-proxy is a lower value target (in case there
were bugs in firewalls) that Kubelet, its more representative than
health checking Kubelet (Kubelet must run AND kube-proxy Daemonset
must be healthy), and its already used by kube-proxy liveness probes
(better discoverability via kubectl or alerts on pods crashlooping)
* Another motivator is that GKE clusters also use kube-proxy port
10256 checks to assess node health
* When a worker managed instance group's (MIG) instance template
changes (including machine type, disk size, or Butane snippets
but excluding new AMIs), use Google Cloud's rolling update features
to ensure instances match declared state
* Ignore new AMIs since Fedora CoreOS and Flatcar Linux nodes
already auto-update and reboot themselves
* Rolling updates will create surge instances, wait for health
checks, then delete old instances (0 unavilable instances)
* Instances are replaced to ensure new Ignition/Butane snippets
are respected
* Add managed instance group autohealing (i.e. health checks) to
ensure new instances' Kubelet is running
Renames
* Name apiserver and kubelet health checks consistently
* Rename MIG from `${var.name}-worker-group` to `${var.name}-worker`

* Requires poseidon v0.11+ and Flatcar Linux 3185.0.0+ (action required)
* Previously, Flatcar Linux configs have been parsed as Container
Linux Configs to Ignition v2.2.0 specs by poseidon/ct
* Flatcar Linux starting in 3185.0.0 now supports Ignition v3.x specs
(which are rendered from Butane Configs, like Fedora CoreOS)
* poseidon/ct v0.11.0 adds support for the flatcar Butane Config
variant so that Flatcar Linux can use Ignition v3.x

* [poseidon/ct support](https://github.com/poseidon/terraform-provider-ct/pull/131)
* Google Cloud Terraform provider resource google_dns_record_set's
name field provides the full domain name with a trailing ".". This
isn't a new behavior, Google has behaved this way as long as I can
remember
* etcd domain names are passed to the bootstrap module to generate
TLS certificates. What seems to be new(ish?) is that etcd peers
see example.foo and example.foo. as different domains during TLS
SANs validation. As a result, clusters with multiple controller
nodes fail to run etcd-member, which manifests as cluster provisioning
hanging. Single controller/master clusters (default) are unaffected
* Fix etcd-member.service error in multi-controller clusters:
```
"error":"x509: certificate is valid for conformance-etcd0.redacted.,
conform-etcd1.redacted., conform-etcd2.redacted., not conform-etcd1.redacted"}
```
* Fixes warning about use of deprecated field `key_algorithm` in
the `hashicorp/tls` provider. The key algorithm can now be inferred
directly from the private key so resources don't have to output
and pass around the algorithm
* Add `boot_disk[0].initialize_params` to the ignored fields for the
controller nodes
* Nodes will auto-update, Terraform should not attempt to delete and
recreate nodes (especially controllers!). Lack of this ignore causes
Terraform to propose deleting controller nodes when Flatcar Linux
releases new images
* Matches the configuration on Typhoon Fedora CoreOS (which does not
have the issue)
