Previously
`pkg.controller.podautoscaler.UnsafeConvertToVersion` was
exported. However, it was never used outside of the `podautoscaler`
package. Make it private to prevent confusion.
Additionally, move the two private functions in `horizontal.go` to be
with the other private functions at the bottom of the file - imho its
more readable than having them directly at the top of the file, before
the public type and function definitions.
Address `golint` errors in `pkg/controller/podautoscaler`. Note,
I did not address issues around exported types/functions missing
comments, because I'm not sure what the convention within the k8s project is.

Move autoscaling/v2 from alpha1 to beta1
This graduates autoscaling/v2alpha1 to autoscaling/v2beta1. The move is more-or-less just a straightforward rename.
Part of kubernetes/features#117
```release-note
v2 of the autoscaling API group, including improvements to the HorizontalPodAutoscaler, has moved from alpha1 to beta1.
```
This commit only sends updates if the status has actually changed.
Since the HPA runs at a regular interval, this should reduce the volume
of writes, especially on short HPA intervals with relatively constant
metrics.
This commit causes the HPA controller to set a variety of status
conditions using the new `Status.Conditions` field of
autoscaling/v2alpha1. These provide insight into the current state
of the HPA, and generally correspond to similar events being emitted.
The new fake client properly represents the resource of `PodMetrics` as
"pods" and the resource of `NodeMetrics` as "nodes". Previously, it
used "podmetricses" and "nodemetrics", respectively.
This fixes up `horizontal_test.go` and `replica_calc_test.go` to use the
new names.
Since the HPA controller pulls information from an external source that
makes no guarantees about consistency, it's possible for the HPA
to get into an infinite update loop -- if the metrics change with
every query, the HPA controller will run it's normal reconcilation,
post a status update, see that status update itself, fetch new metrics,
and if those metrics are different, post another status update, and
repeat. This can lead to continuously updating a single HPA.
By rate-limiting each HPA to once per sync interval, we prevent this
from happening.
This commit switches over the HPA controller to use the custom metrics
API. It also converts the HPA controller to use the generated client
in k8s.io/metrics for the resource metrics API.
In order to enable support, you must enable
`--horizontal-pod-autoscaler-use-rest-clients` on the
controller-manager, which will switch the HPA controller's MetricsClient
implementation over to use the standard rest clients for both custom
metrics and resource metrics. This requires that at the least resource
metrics API is registered with kube-aggregator, and that the controller
manager is pointed at kube-aggregator. For this to work, Heapster
must be serving the new-style API server (`--api-server=true`).
This commit converts the HPA controller over to using the new version of
the HorizontalPodAutoscaler object found in autoscaling/v2alpha1. Note
that while the autoscaler will accept requests for object metrics, the
scale client will return an error on attempts to get object metrics
(since that requires the new custom metrics API, which is not yet
implemented).
This also enables the HPA object in v2alpha1 as a retrievable API
version by default.

rescale immediately if the basic constraints are not satisfied
refactor reconcileAutoscaler.
If the basic constraints are not satisfied, we should rescale the target ref immediately.
Currently, the HPA considers unready pods the same as ready pods when
looking at their CPU and custom metric usage. However, pods frequently
use extra CPU during initialization, so we want to consider them
separately.
This commit causes the HPA to consider unready pods as having 0 CPU
usage when scaling up, and ignores them when scaling down. If, when
scaling up, factoring the unready pods as having 0 CPU would cause a
downscale instead, we simply choose not to scale. Otherwise, we simply
scale up at the reduced amount caculated by factoring the pods in at
zero CPU usage.
The effect is that unready pods cause the autoscaler to be a bit more
conservative -- large increases in CPU usage can still cause scales,
even with unready pods in the mix, but will not cause the scale factors
to be as large, in anticipation of the new pods later becoming ready and
handling load.
Similarly, if there are pods for which no metrics have been retrieved,
these pods are treated as having 100% of the requested metric when
scaling down, and 0% when scaling up. As above, this cannot change the
direction of the scale.
This commit also changes the HPA to ignore superfluous metrics -- as
long as metrics for all ready pods are present, the HPA we make scaling
decisions. Currently, this only works for CPU. For custom metrics, we
cannot identify which metrics go to which pods if we get superfluous
metrics, so we abort the scale.
