Go programs are constructed by linking together <i>packages</i>.
A package in turn is constructed from one or more source files
that together declare constants, types, variables and functions
belonging to the package and which are accessible in all files

* client-go: restores behavior of populating the BearerToken field in rest.Config objects constructed from kubeconfig files containing tokenFile config, or from in-cluster configuration. An additional BearerTokenFile field is now populated to enable constructed clients to periodically refresh tokens.

### Other notable changes

* CustomResourceDefinitions: OpenAPI v3 validation schemas containing `$ref`references are no longer permitted (valid references could not be constructed previously because property ids were not permitted either). Before upgrading, ensure CRD definitions do not include those `$ref` fields. ([#58438](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/58438), [@carlory](https://github.com/carlory))

- The e2e suite can be instructed not to wait for pods in kube-system to be ready or for all nodes to be ready by passing `--allowed-not-ready-nodes=-1` when invoking the e2e.test program. This allows callers to run subsets of the e2e suite in scenarios other than perfectly healthy...
