This creates a new EndpointSliceProxying feature gate to cover EndpointSlice
consumption (kube-proxy) and allow the existing EndpointSlice feature gate to
focus on EndpointSlice production only. Along with that addition, this enables
the EndpointSlice feature gate by default, now only affecting the controller.
The rationale here is that it's really difficult to guarantee all EndpointSlices
are created in a cluster upgrade process before kube-proxy attempts to consume
them. Although masters are generally upgraded before nodes, and in most cases,
the controller would have enough time to create EndpointSlices before a new node
with kube-proxy spun up, there are plenty of edge cases where that might not be
the case. The primary limitation on EndpointSlice creation is the API rate limit
of 20QPS. In clusters with a lot of endpoints and/or with a lot of other API
requests, it could be difficult to create all the EndpointSlices before a new
node with kube-proxy targeting EndpointSlices spun up.
Separating this into 2 feature gates allows for a more gradual rollout with the
EndpointSlice controller being enabled by default in 1.18, and EndpointSlices
for kube-proxy being enabled by default in the next release.

This reverts commit 1ca0ffeaf2.
kube-proxy is not recreating the rules associated to the
KUBE-MARK-DROP chain, that is created by the kubelet.
Is preferrable avoid the dependency between the kubelet and
kube-proxy and that each of them handle their own rules.
This includes IPv4 and IPv6 address types and IPVS dual stack support.
Importantly this ensures that EndpointSlices with a FQDN address type
are not processed by kube-proxy.
