* 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.
Rel: https://coreos.com/os/eol/
* No change to Fedora CoreOS modules
* For Container Linx AWS and Azure, change the `os_image` default
from coreos-stable to flatcar-stable
* For Container Linux GCP and DigitalOcean, change `os_image` to
be required since users should upload a Flatcar Linux image and
set the variable
* For Container Linux bare-metal, recommend users change the
`os_channel` to Flatcar Linux. No actual module change.
* Add `worker_node_labels` map from node name to a list of initial
node label strings
* Add `worker_node_taints` map from node name to a list of initial
node taint strings
* Unlike cloud platforms, bare-metal node labels and taints
are defined via a map from node name to list of labels/taints.
Bare-metal clusters may have heterogeneous hardware so per node
labels and taints are accepted
* Only worker node names are allowed. Workloads are not scheduled
on controller nodes so altering their labels/taints isn't suitable
```
module "mercury" {
...
worker_node_labels = {
"node2" = ["role=special"]
}
worker_node_taints = {
"node2" = ["role=special:NoSchedule"]
}
}
```

* Original tutorials favored including the platform (e.g.
google-cloud) in modules (e.g. google-cloud-yavin). Prefer
naming conventions where each module / cluster has a simple
name (e.g. yavin) since the platform is usually redundant
* Retain the example cluster naming themes per platform
* Define bare-metal `controllers` and `workers` as a complex type
list(object{name=string, mac=string, domain=string}) to allow
clusters with many machines to be defined more cleanly
* Remove `controller_names` list variable
* Remove `controller_macs` list variable
* Remove `controller_domains` list variable
* Remove `worker_names` list variable
* Remove `worker_macs` list variable
* Remove `worker_domains` list variable
* Review variables available in bare-metal kubernetes modules
for Container Linux and Fedora CoreOS
* Deprecate cluster_domain_suffix variable
* Remove deprecated container_linux_oem variable
* Replace v0.11 bracket type hints with Terraform v0.12 list expressions
* Use expression syntax instead of interpolated strings, where suggested
* Update bare-metal tutorial
* Define `clc_snippets` type constraint map(list(string))
* Define Terraform and plugin version requirements in versions.tf
* Require matchbox ~> 0.3.0 to support Terraform v0.12
* Require ct ~> 0.3.2 to support Terraform v0.12
* Add an `enable_aggregation` variable to enable the kube-apiserver
aggregation layer for adding extension apiservers to clusters
* Aggregation is **disabled** by default. Typhoon recommends you not
enable aggregation. Consider whether less invasive ways to achieve your
goals are possible and whether those goals are well-founded
* Enabling aggregation and extension apiservers increases the attack
surface of a cluster and makes extensions a part of the control plane.
Admins must scrutinize and trust any extension apiserver used.
* Passing a v1.14 CNCF conformance test requires aggregation be enabled.
Having an option for aggregation keeps compliance, but retains the
stricter security posture on default clusters
* Require an iPXE-enabled network boot environment with support for
TLS downloads. PXE clients must chainload to iPXE firmware compiled
with `DOWNLOAD_PROTO_HTTPS` enabled ([crypto](https://ipxe.org/crypto))
* iPXE's pre-compiled firmware binaries do _not_ enable HTTPS. Admins
should build iPXE from source with support enabled
* Affects the Container Linux and Flatcar Linux install profiles that
pull from public downloads. No effect when cached_install=true
or using Fedora Atomic, as those download from Matchbox
* Add `download_protocol` variable. Recognizing boot firmware TLS
support is difficult in some environments, set the protocol to "http"
for the old behavior (discouraged)
* Calico Felix has been reporting anonymous usage data about the
version and cluster size, which violates Typhoon's privacy policy
where analytics should be opt-in only
* Add a variable enable_reporting (default: false) to allow opting
in to reporting usage data to Calico (or future components)
* Remove controller_networkds and worker_networkds variables. These
variables were always listed as experimental, unsupported, and excluded
from documentation in anticipation of Container Linux Config snippets
* Use Container Linux Config snippets on bare-metal instead. They
provide safer, more powerful, and more elegant host customization
* Choose the Container Linux derivative Flatcar Linux on
bare-metal by setting os_channel to flatcar-stable, flatcar-beta
or flatcar-alpha
* As with Container Linux from Red Hat, the version (os_version)
must correspond to the channel being used
* Thank you to @dongsupark from Kinvolk
* Allow kube-dns to respond to DNS queries with a custom
suffix, instead of the default 'cluster.local'
* Useful when multiple clusters exist on the same local
network and wish to query services on one another
* Accept ordered lists of controller and worker networkd configs
* Do not rely on these variables. They will be replaced with a
cleaner mechanism at a future date
