Require boilerplate on Bazel Skylark source files
**What this PR does / why we need it**: `.bzl` files are also source code, so they should probably have the boilerplate text too.

Introduce new `VolumeAttachment` API Object
**What this PR does / why we need it**:
Introduce a new `VolumeAttachment` API Object. This object will be used by the CSI volume plugin to enable external attachers (see design [here](https://github.com/kubernetes/community/pull/1258). In the future, existing volume plugins can be refactored to use this object as well.
**Which issue this PR fixes** *(optional, in `fixes #<issue number>(, fixes #<issue_number>, ...)` format, will close that issue when PR gets merged)*: Part of issue https://github.com/kubernetes/features/issues/178

Add a new API version apps/v1beta2
xref: #49135
This PR adds a new API version `apps/v1beta2` which contains a copy (of types, conversions, and defaults) of `apps/v1beta1` StatefulSet, Deployment, and their subresources. Note that `apps/v1beta2` is still WIP and we will make breaking changes to it before releasing 1.8.
Moving core controllers (StatefulSet, Deployment, ReplicaSet, DaemonSet) to `apps/v1beta2` is the first step of moving them to `apps/v1` (GA).
This PR is a starting point for DaemonSet and ReplicaSet to move from `/extensions` to `/apps` and for Deployment and StatefulSet to make some breaking changes (e.g. new defaults and/or remove deprecated fields).
```release-note
Add a new API version apps/v1beta2
```

Add PriorityClass API object under new "scheduling" API group
**What this PR does / why we need it**: This PR is a part of a series of PRs to add pod priority to Kubernetes. This PR adds a new API group called "scheduling" with a new API object called "PriorityClass". PriorityClass maps the string value of priority to its integer value.
**Which issue this PR fixes** *(optional, in `fixes #<issue number>(, fixes #<issue_number>, ...)` format, will close that issue when PR gets merged)*: fixes #
**Special notes for your reviewer**: Given the size of this PR, I will add the admission controller for the PriorityClass in a separate PR.
**Release note**:
```release-note
Add PriorityClass API object under new "scheduling" API group
```
