Previously, the topologymanager would simply fall back to the None() policy
if an invalid policy was specified. This patch updates this to return an
error when an invalid policy is passed, forcing the kubelet to fail
fast when this occurs.
These semantics should be preferable because an invalid policy likely
indicates operator error in setting the policy flag on the kubelet
correctly (e.g. misspelling 'strict' as 'striict'). In this case it is
better to fail fast so the operator can detect this and correct the
mistake, than to mask the error and essentially disable the
topologymanager unexpectedly.

These semantics should be preferable because an invalid policy likely

Use the exported list from runc that uses "KB" and not "kB".
This issue breaks kubelet on AArch64 (arm 64).
var HugePageSizeUnitList = []string{"B", "KB", "MB", "GB", "TB", "PB"}
The hugetlb cgroup control files (introduced here in 2012:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=abb8206cb0773)
use "KB" and not "kB"
(https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/mm/hugetlb_cgroup.c?h=v5.0#n349).
The behavior in the kernel has not changed since the introduction, and
the current code using "kB" will therefore fail on devices with huge
pages smaller than 1MiB. This is the case for AArch64.
As seen from the code in "mem_fmt" inside hugetlb_cgroup.c, only "KB",
"MB" and "GB" are used, so the others may be removed as well.
Here is a real world example of the files inside the
"/sys/kernel/mm/hugepages/" directory:
- "hugepages-64kB"
- "hugepages-2048kB"
- "hugepages-32768kB"
- "hugepages-1048576kB"
And the corresponding cgroup files:
- "hugetlb.64KB._____"
- "hugetlb.2MB._____"
- "hugetlb.32MB._____"
- "hugetlb.1GB._____"

Fix an issue in which, when trying to specify the `--kube-reserved-cgroup`
(or `--system-reserved-cgroup`) with `--cgroup-driver=systemd`, we will
not properly convert the `systemd` cgroup name into the internal cgroup
name that k8s expects. Without this change, specifying
`--kube-reserved-cgroup=/test.slice --cgroup-driver=systemd` will fail,
and only `--kube-reserved-cgroup=/test --crgroup-driver=systemd` will succeed,
even if the actual cgroup existing on the host is `/test.slice`.
Additionally, add light unit testing of our process from converting to a
systemd cgroup name to kubernetes internal cgroup name.
These updates are based on discussions had about the preferred semantics
of the TopologyManager and will be reflected in changes to an upcoming
PR that adds the actual TopologyManager implementation.
