* Remove Kubelet `/etc/iscsi` and `iscsiadm` host mounts that
were added on bare-metal, since these no longer work on either
Fedora CoreOS or Flatcar Linux with newer `iscsiadm`
* These special mounts on bare-metal date back to #350 which
added them to provide a way to use iSCSI in Kubernetes v1.10
* Today, storage should be handled by external CSI providers
which handle different storage systems, which doesn't rely
on Kubelet storage utils
Close#907
* Change control plane static pods to mount `/etc/kubernetes/pki`,
instead of `/etc/kubernetes/bootstrap-secrets` to better reflect
their purpose and match some loose conventions upstream
* Place control plane and bootstrap TLS assets and kubeconfig's
in `/etc/kubernetes/pki`
* Mount to `/etc/kubernetes/pki` (rather than `/etc/kubernetes/secrets`)
to match the host location (less surprise)

* Generate TLS client certificates for `kube-scheduler` and
`kube-controller-manager` with `system:kube-scheduler` and
`system:kube-controller-manager` CNs
* Template separate kubeconfigs for kube-scheduler and
kube-controller manager (`scheduler.conf` and
`controller-manager.conf`). Rename admin for clarity
* Before v1.16.0, Typhoon scheduled a self-hosted control
plane, which allowed the steady-state kube-scheduler and
kube-controller-manager to use a scoped ServiceAccount.
With a static pod control plane, separate CN TLS client
certificates are the nearest equiv.
* https://kubernetes.io/docs/setup/best-practices/certificates/
* Remove unused Kubelet certificate, TLS bootstrap is used
instead
* Allow terraform-provider-ct versions v0.6+ (e.g. v0.7.1)
Before, only v0.6.x point updates were allowed
* Update terraform-provider-ct to v0.7.1 in docs
* READ the docs before updating terraform-provider-ct,
as changing worker user-data is handled differently
by different cloud platforms
* Mark `kubeconfig` and `asset_dist` as `sensitive` to
prevent the Terraform CLI displaying these values, esp.
for CI systems
* In particular, external tools or tfvars style uses (not
recommended) reportedly display all outputs and are improved
by setting sensitive
* For Terraform v0.14, outputs referencing sensitive fields
must also be annotated as sensitive
Closes https://github.com/poseidon/typhoon/issues/884
* Allow a snippet with a systemd dropin to set an alternate
image via `ETCD_IMAGE`, for consistency across Fedora CoreOS
and Flatcar Linux
* Drop comments about integrating system containers with
systemd-notify
* CoreOS Container Linux was deprecated in v1.18.3
* Continue transitioning docs and modules from supporting
both CoreOS and Flatcar "variants" of Container Linux to
now supporting Flatcar Linux and equivalents
Action Required: Update the Flatcar Linux modules `source`
to replace `s/container-linux/flatcar-linux`. See docs for
examples
* Use docker to run the `kubelet.service` container
* Update Kubelet mounts to match Fedora CoreOS
* Remove unused `/etc/ssl/certs` mount (see
https://github.com/poseidon/typhoon/pull/810)
* Remove unused `/usr/share/ca-certificates` mount
* Remove `/etc/resolv.conf` mount, Docker default is ok
* Change `delete-node.service` to use docker instead of rkt
and inline ExecStart, as was done on Fedora CoreOS
* Fix permission denied on shutdown `delete-node`, caused
by the kubeconfig mount changing with the introduction of
node TLS bootstrap
Background
* podmand, rkt, and runc daemonless container process runners
provide advantages over the docker daemon for system containers.
Docker requires workarounds for use in systemd units where the
ExecStart must tail logs so systemd can monitor the daemonized
container. https://github.com/moby/moby/issues/6791
* Why switch then? On Flatcar Linux, podman isn't shipped. rkt
works, but isn't developing while container standards continue
to move forward. Typhoon has used runc for the Kubelet runner
before in Fedora Atomic, but its more low-level. So we're left
with Docker, which is less than ideal, but shipped in Flatcar
* Flatcar Linux appears to be shifting system components to
use docker, which does provide some limited guards against
breakages (e.g. Flatcar cannot enable docker live restore)
* Originally, poseidon/terraform-render-bootstrap generated
TLS certificates, manifests, and cluster "assets" written
to local disk (`asset_dir`) during terraform apply cluster
bootstrap
* Typhoon v1.17.0 introduced bootstrapping using only Terraform
state to store cluster assets, to avoid ever writing sensitive
materials to disk and improve automated use-cases. `asset_dir`
was changed to optional and defaulted to "" (no writes)
* Typhoon v1.18.0 deprecated the `asset_dir` variable, removed
docs, and announced it would be deleted in future.
* Add Terraform output `assets_dir` map
* Remove the `asset_dir` variable
Cluster assets are now stored in Terraform state only. For those
who wish to write those assets to local files, this is possible
doing so explicitly.
```
resource local_file "assets" {
for_each = module.yavin.assets_dist
filename = "some-assets/${each.key}"
content = each.value
}
```

* CoreOS Container Linux was deprecated in v1.18.3 (May 2020)
in favor of Fedora CoreOS and Flatcar Linux. CoreOS Container
Linux references were kept to give folks more time to migrate,
but AMIs have now been deleted. Time is up.

* seccomp graduated to GA in Kubernetes v1.19. Support for
seccomp alpha annotations will be removed in v1.22
* Replace seccomp annotations with the GA seccompProfile
field in the PodTemplate securityContext
* Switch profile from `docker/default` to `runtime/default`
(no effective change, since docker is the runtime)
* Verify with docker inspect SecurityOpt. Without the profile,
you'd see `seccomp=unconfined`

* Fix race condition for bootstrap-secrets SELinux context on non-bootstrap controllers in multi-controller FCOS clusters
* On first boot from disk on non-bootstrap controllers, adding bootstrap-secrets races with kubelet.service starting, which can cause the secrets assets to have the wrong label until kubelet.service restarts (service, reboot, auto-update)
* This can manifest as `kube-apiserver`, `kube-controller-manager`, and `kube-scheduler` pods crashlooping on spare controllers on first cluster creation
