This is a better abstraction than passing in specific pieces of the
Service that each of the cloudproviders may or may not need. For
instance, many of the providers don't need a region, yet this is passed
in. Similarly many of the providers want a string IP for the load
balancer, but it passes in a converted net ip. Affinity is unused by
AWS. A provider change may also require adding a new parameter which has
an effect on all other cloud provider implementations.
Further, this will simplify adding provider specific load balancer
options, such as with labels or some other metadata. For example, we
could add labels for configuring the details of an AWS elastic load
balancer, such as idle timeout on connections, whether it is
internal or external, cross-zone load balancing, and so on.

The load balancer's name is determined by the service's UID. If the
service's UID has changed (presumably due to a delete and recreate),
then we need to recreate the load balancer as well to avoid eventually
leaking the old one.
Re-GET the service object when we process it rather than trusting the
delta. This will make for a lot more service get requests given that we
resync all the services every 5 minutes, but will avoid re-ordering of
updates and continually retrying stale updates, as has been described in
a few other issues and PRs.
I can't revert with github which says "Sorry, this pull request couldn’t be

We previously made the cloudproviders take on the responsibility of deleting
existing load balancers; this lets us simplify the servicecontroller logic
and also lays the groundwork for more efficient cloudprovider LB implementations
to do an in-place change on a LB.
Previously the servicecontroller would do the delete, but by having the cloudprovider
take that task on, we can later remove it from the servicecontroller, and the
cloudprovider can do something more efficient.
