* Switch from Azure Hypervisor generation 1 to generation 2
* Change default Azure `worker_type` from Standard_DS1_v2 to Standard_D2as_v5
* Get 2 VCPU, 7 GiB, 12500Mbps (vs 1 VCPU, 3.5GiB, 750 Mbps)
* Small increase in pay-as-you-go price ($53.29 -> $62.78)
* Small increase in spot price ($5.64/mo -> $7.37/mo)
* Change from Intel to AMD EPYC (`D2as_v5` cheaper than `D2s_v5`)
Notes: Azure makes you accept terms for each plan:
```
az vm image terms accept --publish kinvolk --offer flatcar-container-linux-free --plan stable-gen2
```

* Typhoon now consistently uses Butane Configs for snippets
(variant `fcos` or `flatcar`). Previously snippets were either
Butane Configs (on FCOS) or Container Linux Configs (on Flatcar)
* Update docs on uploading Flatcar Linux DigitalOcean images
* Update docs on uploading Fedora CoreOS Azure images
* Use the official Kinvolk Flatcar Linux image on Google Cloud
* Change `os_image` from a custom image name to `flatcar-stable`
(default), `flatcar-beta`, or `flatcar-alpha` (**action required**)
* Change `os_image` from a required to an optional variable
* Promote Typhoon on Flatcar Linux / Google Cloud to stable
* Remove docs about needing to upload a Flatcar Linux image
manually on Google Cloud and drop support for custom images
* Add `arch` variable to Flatcar Linux AWS `kubernetes` and
`workers` modules. Accept `amd64` (default) or `arm64` to support
native arm64/aarch64 clusters or mixed/hybrid clusters with arm64
workers
* Requires `flannel` or `cilium` CNI
Similar to https://github.com/poseidon/typhoon/pull/875
* Add `node_taints` variable to worker modules to set custom
initial node taints on cloud platforms that support auto-scaling
worker pools of heterogeneous nodes (i.e. AWS, Azure, GCP)
* Worker pools could use custom `node_labels` to allowed workloads
to select among differentiated nodes, while custom `node_taints`
allows a worker pool's nodes to be tainted as special to prevent
scheduling, except by workloads that explicitly tolerate the
taint
* Expose `daemonset_tolerations` in AWS, Azure, and GCP kubernetes
cluster modules, to determine whether `kube-system` components
should tolerate the custom taint (advanced use covered in docs)
Rel: #550, #663Closes#429
* 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
* Add experimental `arch` variable to Fedora CoreOS AWS,
accepting amd64 (default) or arm64 to support native
arm64/aarch64 clusters or mixed/hybrid clusters with
a worker pool of arm64 workers
* Add `daemonset_tolerations` variable to cluster module
(experimental)
* Add `node_taints` variable to workers module
* Requires flannel CNI and experimental Poseidon-built
arm64 Fedora CoreOS AMIs (published to us-east-1, us-east-2,
and us-west-1)
WARN:
* Our AMIs are experimental, may be removed at any time, and
will be removed when Fedora CoreOS publishes official arm64
AMIs. Do NOT use in production
Related:
* https://github.com/poseidon/typhoon/pull/682
* 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
