* Flatcar Linux has not published an Edge channel image since
April 2020 and recently removed mention of the channel from
their documentation https://github.com/kinvolk/Flatcar/pull/345
* Users of Flatcar Linux Edge should move to the stable, beta, or
alpha channel, barring any alternate advice from upstream Flatcar
Linux
* 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)
Rel: https://github.com/poseidon/terraform-render-bootstrap/pull/233
* 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
* NLB subnets assigned both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses
* NLB DNS name has both A and AAAA records
* NLB to target node traffic is IPv4 (no change),
no change to security groups needed
* Ingresses exposed through the recommended Nginx
Ingress Controller addon will be accessible via
IPv4 or IPv6. No change is needed to the app's
CNAME to NLB record

* 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
