Enable API chunking and promote to beta for 1.9
All list watchers default to using chunking. The server by default fills pages to avoid low cardinality filters from making excessive numbers of requests. Fix an issue with continuation tokens where a `../` could be used if the feature was enabled.
```release-note
API chunking via the `limit` and `continue` request parameters is promoted to beta in this release. Client libraries using the Informer or ListWatch types will automatically opt in to chunking.
