- Force deleted pods may fail to terminate until the kubelet is restarted when the container runtime returns an error during termination. We have strengthened testing for runtime failures and now perform a more rigorous reconciliation to ensure static pods (especially those that use fixed UIDs) are restarted.  As a side effect of these changes static pods will be restarted with lower...

- Fixed an issue in register-gen where imports for k8s.io/apimachinery/pkg/runtime and k8s.io/apimachinery/pkg/runtime/schema were missing. ([#130392](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/130392), [@mrIncompetent](https://github.com/mrIncompetent)) [SIG API Machinery]

* Kubelet now proxies container streaming between apiserver and container runtime. The connection between kubelet and apiserver is authenticated. Container runtime should change streaming server to serve on localhost, to make the connection between kubelet and container runtime local.
