This preference list matches is used to pick prefered field from k8s
node object. It was introduced in metrics-server 0.3 and changed default
behaviour to use DNS instead of IP addresses. It was merged into k8s
1.12 and caused breaking change by introducing dependency on DNS
configuration.
v0.3.0 is the latest version of metrics-server, and brings a number of
internal stability improvements as well as some bugfixes and features.
NB: this currently disables Kubelet auth entirely, since this setup
needs to work on GKE for the tests, and GKE doesn't support delegated
Kubelet auth yet. When that's rectified, we can switch this over to
use secure options.

This is the 2nd attempt. The previous was reverted while we figured out
the regional mirrors (oops).
New plan: k8s.gcr.io is a read-only facade that auto-detects your source
region (us, eu, or asia for now) and pulls from the closest. To publish
an image, push k8s-staging.gcr.io and it will be synced to the regionals
automatically (similar to today). For now the staging is an alias to
gcr.io/google_containers (the legacy URL).
When we move off of google-owned projects (working on it), then we just
do a one-time sync, and change the google-internal config, and nobody
outside should notice.
We can, in parallel, change the auto-sync into a manual sync - send a PR
to "promote" something from staging, and a bot activates it. Nice and
visible, easy to keep track of.

Reduce Metrics Server memory requirement
**What this PR does / why we need it**:
Reduces memory requirements of Metrics Server.
This was tested on GCE. On 16 - node cluster with 30 user pods per node, Metrics Server consumes ~60MB of memory. For larger clusters, the base value matters even less, and the memory utilization will be lower, therefore this change is safe.
**Release note**:
```release-note
Reduce Metrics Server memory requirement

Reduce CPU and memory requests for Metrics Server Nanny
**What this PR does / why we need it**:
Metrics Server Nanny is a sidecar container that performs small computations every 5 minutes to scale Metrics Server resource requirements when cluster size changes. This change reduces the CPU and memory requests to free up unused resource.
**Release note**:
```release-note
Free up CPU and memory requested but unused by Metrics Server Pod Nanny.
```
