* Kubectl: Remove swagger 1.2 validation. Also removes options `--use-openapi` and `--schema-cache-dir` as these are no longer needed. ([#53232](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/53232), [@apelisse](https://github.com/apelisse))

<table>
  <tr>
    <td>previous</td>
    <td>now</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>GET /swagger.json</td>
    <td>GET /openapi/v2

  If set to an empty string, caching is disabled.

- Kubectl now performs validation against OpenAPI schema instead of Swagger 1.2. If
  OpenAPI is not available on the server, it falls back to the old Swagger 1.2.

- Added Italian translation for kubectl.

- Added German translation for kubectl.

#### Scheduling

  - The /swagger.json and /swagger-2.0.0.pb-v1 schema documents, deprecated since v1.10, have been removed in favor of `/openapi/v2` ([#73148](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/73148), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))

* genericapiserver: turn APIContainer.SecretRoutes into a real ServeMux ([#38826](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/38826), [@sttts](https://github.com/sttts))
* genericapiserver: unify swagger and openapi in config ([#38690](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/38690), [@sttts](https://github.com/sttts))
