improve detectability of deleted pods
**What this PR does / why we need it**:
Adds comment to `waitForPodTerminatedInNamespace` to better explain how it's implemented.
~~It improves pod deletion detection in the e2e framework as follows:~~
~~1. the `waitForPodTerminatedInNamespace` func looks for pod.Status.Phase == _PodFailed_ or _PodSucceeded_ since both values imply that all containers have terminated.~~
~~2. the `waitForPodTerminatedInNamespace` func also ignores the pod's Reason if the passed-in `reason` parm is "". Reason is not really relevant to the pod being deleted or not, but if the caller passes a non-blank `reason` then it will be lower-cased, de-blanked and compared to the pod's Reason (also lower-cased and de-blanked). The idea is to make Reason checking more flexible and to prevent a pod from being considered running when all of its containers have terminated just because of a Reason mis-match.~~

Add node e2e tests for GKE environment
Ref: https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/46891
This PR adds node e2e tests for validating images used on GKE.
- We pass the `SYSTEM_SPEC_NAME` to the node e2e test process via the flag `--system-spec-name` so that we can skip the environment specific tests using `RunIfSystemSpecNameIs()`.
- Also added `SkipIfContainerRuntimeIs()` as the opposite of `RunIfContainerRuntimeIs()`.

improve log for pod deletion poll loop
**What this PR does / why we need it**:
It improves some logging related to waiting for a pod to reach a passed-in condition. Specifically, related to issue [49529](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/49529) where better logging may help to debug the root cause.

Write reports for each upgrade test
Due to the way Ginkgo runs individual test cases and the level of coordination required for the upgrade tests, they were all run under a single Ginkgo test case. This PR generates and auxiliary report that break out the results of each upgrade test. This is accomplished by:
1) Wrapping `ginkgo.Fail` and `ginkgo.Skip` to get the actual failure or skip messages.
2) Recovering that info in the upgrade test to generate an auxiliary report.
I suggest reviewing commit by commit.

Made WaitForReplicas and EnsureDesiredReplicas use PollImmediate and improved logging.
**What this PR does / why we need it**: Most importantly, this results in better logging: timeout is logged at the level of the caller, not the helper function, helping debugging.

Make GCE load-balancers create health checks for nodes
From #14661. Proposal on kubernetes/community#552. Fixes#46313.
Bullet points:
- Create nodes health check and firewall (for health checking) for non-OnlyLocal service.
- Create local traffic health check and firewall (for health checking) for OnlyLocal service.
- Version skew:
- Don't create nodes health check if any nodes has version < 1.7.0.
- Don't backfill nodes health check on existing LBs unless users explicitly trigger it.
**Release note**:
```release-note
GCE Cloud Provider: New created LoadBalancer type Service now have health checks for nodes by default.
An existing LoadBalancer will have health check attached to it when:
- Change Service.Spec.Type from LoadBalancer to others and flip it back.
- Any effective change on Service.Spec.ExternalTrafficPolicy.
```
