Remove null -> [] slice hack

Closes #44593

When 1.6 added protobuf storage, the storage layer lost the ability to persist slice fields with empty but non-null values.

As a workaround, we tried to convert empty slice fields to `[]`, rather than `null`. Compressing `null` -> `[]` was just as much of an API breakage as `[]` -> `null`, but was hoped to cause fewer problems in clients that don't do null checks.

Because of conversion optimizations around converting lists of objects, the `null` -> `[]` hack was discovered to only apply to individual get requests, not to a list of objects. 1.6 and 1.7 was released with this behavior, and the world didn't explode. 1.7 documented the breaking API change that `null` and `[]` should be considered equivalent, unless otherwise noted on a particular field.

This PR:

* Reverts the earlier attempt (https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/43422) at ensuring non-null json slice output in conversion
* Makes results of `get` consistent with the results of `list` (which helps naive clients that do deepequal comparisons of objects obtained via list/watch and get), and allows empty slice fields to be returned as `null`

```release-note
Protobuf serialization does not distinguish between `[]` and `null`.
API fields previously capable of storing and returning either `[]` and `null` via JSON API requests (for example, the Endpoints `subsets` field) can now store only `null` when created using the protobuf content-type or stored in etcd using protobuf serialization (the default in 1.6+). JSON API clients should tolerate `null` values for such fields, and treat `null` and `[]` as equivalent in meaning unless specifically documented otherwise for a particular field.

Kubernetes

Submit Queue Widget GoDoc Widget


Kubernetes is an open source system for managing containerized applications across multiple hosts, providing basic mechanisms for deployment, maintenance, and scaling of applications.

Kubernetes builds upon a decade and a half of experience at Google running production workloads at scale using a system called Borg, combined with best-of-breed ideas and practices from the community.

Kubernetes is hosted by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF). If you are a company that wants to help shape the evolution of technologies that are container-packaged, dynamically-scheduled and microservices-oriented, consider joining the CNCF. For details about who's involved and how Kubernetes plays a role, read the CNCF announcement.


To start using Kubernetes

See our documentation on kubernetes.io.

Try our interactive tutorial.

Take a free course on Scalable Microservices with Kubernetes.

To start developing Kubernetes

The community repository hosts all information about building Kubernetes from source, how to contribute code and documentation, who to contact about what, etc.

If you want to build Kubernetes right away there are two options:

You have a working Go environment.
$ go get -d k8s.io/kubernetes
$ cd $GOPATH/src/k8s.io/kubernetes
$ make
You have a working Docker environment.
$ git clone https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes
$ cd kubernetes
$ make quick-release

If you are less impatient, head over to the developer's documentation.

Support

If you need support, start with the troubleshooting guide and work your way through the process that we've outlined.

That said, if you have questions, reach out to us one way or another.
