This is a simple way, using the same environment variable paradigm used throughout these scripts, to let a user specify kubectl arguments to the addons script.

Add support for kube-up.sh to deploy Calico network policy to GCI masters
Also remove requirement for calicoctl from Debian / salt installed nodes and clean it up a little by deploying calico-node with a manifest rather than calicoctl. This also makes it more reliable by retrying properly.
How to use:
```
make quick-release
NETWORK_POLICY_PROVIDER=calico cluster/kube-up.sh
```
One place where I was uncertain:
- CPU allocations (on the master particularly, where there's very little spare capacity). I took some from etcd, but if there's a better way to decide this, I'm happy to change it.

Add cleanup addon pod to remove empty keys from etcd
namespace deletion will leave a trace of empty keys on etcd. This PR adds an addon pod to periodically check for those empty keys on etcd and remove them.

Bump exechealthz image
With the new image at least if we observe an exec container taking more ram than it should (like the oom situation, which shouldn't happen today because of the increased limits), we can kubectl exec and check the pprof endpoints.
Note that I'm not bumping the rc version, because I just did so with: https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/29693.
Only run the systemd-journal plugin when on a platform that requests it.
The plugin crashes the fluentd process if the journal isn't present, so
it can't just be run blindly in all configurations.
