CPU Manager: file state for all policies
**What this PR does / why we need it**:
Before this change, the new file-backed state was only enabled for the static CPU manager policy. This patch enables persistent state for all policies.
This PR fixes#55736 and the potential CPU resource leak described in that issue.

This patch is one in a series of patches that aims to move all
printing functions to the `cmdutil.Factory` in order to make
the factory the one-stop shop for accessing printers in the client.
This PR is related to https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/50113 and aims to break that set of changes
by introducing a portion of them in this commit in order to make

fix azure disk storage account init issue
**What this PR does / why we need it**:
There are two issues for the original azure disk storage account initialaztion code:
1) wrong controller-master detection, see issue #54570, #55776

For 1: remove the controller-master process binding
For 2: remove the storage account initialization process, just create on demand

improve the logic setting cgroupparent in RunPodSandbox
Signed-off-by: yanxuean <yan.xuean@zte.com.cn>
**What this PR does / why we need it**:
The setting of cgroupparent is too confused!
The old logic is:
1. set CgroupParent correctly
2. reset CgroupParent incorrectly
3. set CgroupParent again (refer to #42055 )
The login is too confused, and It is sure that there are many people who drop in trap.
We only need to set it in one place.

Ensure new tags are created on existing ELBs
**What this PR does / why we need it**:
When editing an existing service of type LoadBalancer in an AWS environment and adding the `service.beta.kubernetes.io/aws-load-balancer-additional-resource-tags` annotation, you would expect the new tags to be set on the load balancer, however this doesn't happen currently. The annotation only takes effect if specified when the service is created.
This PR adds an AddTags method to the ELB interface and uses this to ensure tags set in the annotation are present on the ELB. If the tag key is already present, the value will be updated.
This PR does not remove tags that have been removed from the annotation, it only add/updates tags.
**Which issue(s) this PR fixes**:
Fixes#54642
**Special notes for your reviewer**:
The change requires that the IAM policy of the master instance(s) has the `elasticloadbalancing:AddTags` permission.
**Release note**:
```release-note

Fix issue #55031 to remove dependence on package lxn/win
**What this PR does / why we need it**:
This PR fixes issue #55031 where kubelet.exe crashes on Windows Server Core. The root cause is that kubelet.exe depends on package lxn/win pdh and kernel32 wrapper for node metrics. However, opengl32.dll is not available in Server Core and lxn/win requires the presence of all win32 DLLs.
This PR uses a slim win32 package JeffAshton/win_pdh since most win32 APIs needed are PDH API. Also this PR makes own implementation of GetPhysicallyInstalledSystemMemory until golang Windows syscall has it or lxn/win fixes opengl32 issue. Also this PR modifies the way to get Windows version.

Disable container disk metrics when using the CRI stats integration
Issue: https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/51798
As explained in the issue, runtimes which make use of the CRI Stats API still have the performance overhead of collecting those same stats through cAdvisor.
The CRI Stats API has metrics for CPU, Memory, and Disk. This PR significantly reduces the added overhead due to collecting these stats in both cAdvisor and in the runtime.
This PR disables container disk metrics, which are very expensive to collect.
This PR does not disable node-level disk stats, as the "Raw" container handler does not currently respect ignoring DiskUsageMetrics.
This PR factors out the logic for determining whether or not to use the CRI stats provider into a helper function, as cAdvisor is instantiated before it is passed to the kubelet as a dependency.

Move unstructured conversion into pkg/runtime
Scheme conversion should support unstructured conversion natively to
allow going from unstructured to typed and back. It is not a higher
level responsibility to do that conversion because the scheme is the
only one who knows what types it supports.
@liggitt @kubernetes/sig-cli-api-reviews I am going to make Scheme support unstructured in ConvertToVersion and Convert, which means resource.Builder and the CLI can get simpler for all existing use cases where versioned and unstructured need to coexist.

The first call to Set will clear the map before adding entries;
subsequent calls will simply append to the map.
This makes it possible to override default values with a command-line
option rather than appending to defaults,
while still allowing the distribution of key-value pairs across
multiple flag invocations.
For example: `--flag "a:hello" --flag "b:again" --flag "b:beautiful"
--flag "c:world"` results in `{"a": ["hello"], "b": ["again",
"beautiful"], "c": ["world"]}`
