Bring back the -enable-nodefeature-api command line flag and the
corresponding enableNodeFeatureApi helm config value that were
removed without deprecation when the NodeFeatureAPI feature gate was
introduced. The thinking behind this change is to not break existing
users (without warning) unless totally unavoidable. Now the
-enable-nodefeature-api flag is marked as deprecated and slated for
removal in NFD v0.17.
The NodeFeatureAPI feature gate and the -enable-nodefeature-api flag
work together so that the NodeFeature API is disabled (gRPC is enabled,
instead) if either of them is set to false.
This patch selectively reverts parts of
06c4733bc5.
Plan the removal of the -crd-controller flag along with the gRPC API.
This flag does not make much sense after that as all communication with
nfd-worker is based on CRDs - with the CRD controller disabled
nfd-master is virtually a functionless stub.
Now that the NodeFeature API has been set enabled by default, the gRPC
mode will be deprecated and with it all flags and features around it.
For nfd-master, flags
-port, -key-file, -ca-file, -cert-file, -verify-node-name, -enable-nodefeature-api
are now marked as deprecated.
For nfd-worker flags
-enable-nodefeature-api, -ca-file, -cert-file, -key-file, -server, -server-name-override
are now marked as deprecated.
Deprecated flags, as well as gRPC related code will be removed in future
releases.

This PR aims to optimize the process of updating nodes with
corresponding features. In fact, previously, we were updating nodes
sequentially even though they are independent from each other.
Therefore, we integrated new components: LabelersNodePool which is
responsible for spininng a goroutine whenever there's a request for
updating nodes, and a Workqueue which is responsible for holding nodes names
that should be updated.

It allows NFD-master to be run in active-passive way when running
multiple instances of NFD-master to prevent multiple components
from updating same custom resources.

This PR adds a config option for setting the NFD API controller resync period.
The resync period is only activated when the NodeFeature API has been
enabled (with -enable-nodefeature-api).

Mark the -resource-labels flag (and the corresponding resourceLabels
config option) as deprecated. We now support managing extended resources
via NodeFeatureRule objects. This kludge deserves to go, eventually.
Similar to the nfd-worker, in this PR we want to support the
dynamic run-time configurability through a config file for the nfd-master.
We'll use a json or yaml configuration file along with the fsnotify in
order to watch for changes in the config file. As a result, we're
allowing dynamic control of logging params, allowed namespaces,
extended resources, label whitelisting, and denied namespaces.

Document the usage of the NodeFeature CRD API. Also re-organize the
documentation a bit, moving the description of NodeFeatureRule
controller from customization guide to nfd-master usage page.
Deprecate the '-featurerules-controller' command line flag as the name
does not describe the functionality anymore: in practice it controls the
CRD controller handling both NodeFeature and NodeFeatureRule objects.
The patch introduces a duplicate, more generally named, flag
'-crd-controller'. A warning is printed in the log if
'-featurerules-controller' flag is encountered.
Add initial support for handling NodeFeature objects. With this patch
nfd-master watches NodeFeature objects in all namespaces and reacts to
changes in any of these. The node which a certain NodeFeature object
affects is determined by the "nfd.node.kubernetes.io/node-name"
annotation of the object. When a NodeFeature object targeting certain
node is changed, nfd-master needs to process all other objects targeting
the same node, too, because there may be dependencies between them.
Add a new command line flag for selecting between gRPC and NodeFeature
CRD API as the source of feature requests. Enabling NodeFeature API
disables the gRPC interface.
-enable-nodefeature-api enable NodeFeature CRD API for incoming
feature requests, will disable the gRPC
interface (defaults to false)
It is not possible to serve gRPC and watch NodeFeature objects at the
same time. This is deliberate to avoid labeling races e.g. by nfd-worker
sending gRPC requests but NodeFeature objects in the cluster
"overriding" those changes (labels from the gRPC requests will get
overridden when NodeFeature objects are processed).
Introduce two main sections "Deployment" and "Usage" and move "Developer
guide" to the top level, too. In particular, split the huge
deployment-and-usage file into multiple parts under the new main
sections. Move customization guide from "Advanced" to "Usage".
This patch also renames "Advanced" to "Reference" as only that is left
there is reference documentation.
