The documentation defines a couple of replication-controller and service
to provision a docker-registry somewhere on the cluster and have it
available by the name viz. A record of
kube-registry.default.svc.<clustername>.
On each node, http-proxies are placed as daemon-set with the
kube-registry DNS name set as upstream, so that the registry is
available on each host under endpoint localhost:5000
Because in the documentation, selector-identifiers are the same for
"upstream" registry and proxies, the proxies themselves register under
the service intended for the upstream and now have themselves as
upstream under a different port, where connection attempts result in
"connection refused".
Adapting selectors to be unique as in this patch fixes the problem.

Using daemonset to bring up a pod on each node of cluster,
right now the docs suggests to bring up a pod on each node by
manually dropping the pod manifests into directory /etc/kubernetes/manifests.

contribute deis/registry-proxy as a replacement for kube-registry-proxy
This PR is a proposal to replace the `kube-registry-proxy` addon code with [deis/registry-proxy](https://github.com/deis/registry-proxy). We have been running this component in production for several months ([since Workflow v2.3.0](15d4c1c298/workflow-v2.3.0/tpl/deis-registry-proxy-daemon.yaml)) without any issues.
There are several benefits that this proxy provides over the current implementation:
- it's the same code that is provided in [docker/distribution's contrib dir](https://github.com/docker/distribution/tree/master/contrib/compose) which I have personally used for both Docker v1 and v2 engine deployments without any issues
- the ability to [disable old Docker clients](https://github.com/deis/registry-proxy/blob/master/rootfs/etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf.in#L19-L23) that are incompatible with the v2 registry
- better default connection timeouts, using best practices from the Docker community as a whole
- workarounds for bugs like https://github.com/docker/docker/issues/1486 (see https://github.com/deis/registry-proxy/blob/master/rootfs/etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf.in#L15-L16)
Things that this PR differs from the current implementation:
- it's not HAProxy.
I'm not sure how the release process goes for this component, but I bumped the version to v0.4 and changed the maintainer to myself considering this is a massive overhaul. Please let me know if this is acceptable as a replacement or if we should perhaps consider this as an alternative implementation.
Happy Friday!
