The codec factory should support two distinct interfaces - negotiating
for a serializer with a client, vs reading or writing data to a storage
form (etcd, disk, etc). Make the EncodeForVersion and DecodeToVersion
methods only take Encoder and Decoder, and slight refactoring elsewhere.
In the storage factory, use a content type to control what serializer to
pick, and use the universal deserializer. This ensures that storage can
read JSON (which might be from older objects) while only writing
protobuf. Add exceptions for those resources that may not be able to
write to protobuf (specifically third party resources, but potentially
others in the future).

Make etcd cache size configurable
Instead of the prior 50K limit, allow users to specify a more sensible size for their cluster.
I'm not sure what a sensible default is here. I'm still experimenting on my own clusters. 50 gives me a 270MB max footprint. 50K caused my apiserver to run out of memory as it exceeded >2GB. I believe that number is far too large for most people's use cases.
There are some other fundamental issues that I'm not addressing here:
- Old etcd items are cached and potentially never removed (it stores using modifiedIndex, and doesn't remove the old object when it gets updated)
- Cache isn't LRU, so there's no guarantee the cache remains hot. This makes its performance difficult to predict. More of an issue with a smaller cache size.
- 1.2 etcd entries seem to have a larger memory footprint (I never had an issue in 1.1, even though this cache existed there). I suspect that's due to image lists on the node status.
This is provided as a fix for #23323
This commit adds support to core resources to enable deferred deletion
of resources. Clients may optionally specify a time period after which
resources must be deleted via an object sent with their DELETE. That
object may define an optional grace period in seconds, or allow the
default "preferred" value for a resource to be used. Once the object
is marked as pending deletion, the deletionTimestamp field will be set
and an etcd TTL will be in place.
Clients should assume resources that have deletionTimestamp set will
be deleted at some point in the future. Other changes will come later
to enable graceful deletion on a per resource basis.
