Handle failure cases on startup gracefully to avoid causing cascading
errors and poor initialization in other components. Initial errors from
config load cause the initializer to pause and hold requests. Return
typed errors to better communicate failures to clients.
Add code to handle two specific cases - admin wants to bypass
initialization defaulting, and mirror pods (which want to bypass
initialization because the kubelet owns their lifecycle).
Add support for creating resources that are not immediately visible to
naive clients, but must first be initialized by one or more privileged
cluster agents. These controllers can mark the object as initialized,
allowing others to see them.
Permission to override initialization defaults or modify an initializing
object is limited per resource to a virtual subresource "RESOURCE/initialize"
via RBAC.
Initialization is currently alpha.
