An <i>integer</i>, <i>floating-point</i>, or <i>complex</i> type
represents the set of integer, floating-point, or complex values, respectively.
They are collectively called <i>numeric types</i>.
The predeclared architecture-independent numeric types are:

uint8       the set of all unsigned  8-bit integers (0 to 255)
uint16      the set of all unsigned 16-bit integers (0 to 65535)

- Allow CSI drivers to just run offline expansion tests. ([#102665](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/102665), [@gnufied](https://github.com/gnufied))
- Changed buildmode of non static Kubernetes binaries to produce position independent executables (PIE). ([#102323](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/102323), [@saschagrunert](https://github.com/saschagrunert))
- Clarified the description of a test in the e2e suite that mentions "SCTP" but is

Additionally, a background task is normally an independent set of logic that should be handled separately, with its own resources (e.g. its own database connection).

    *   Clients using older endpoints will be unaffected. This change is only at the REST API level and is independent of the default behavior of particular clients (e.g. this does not affect the default for the kubectl `--cascade` flag).

	      * Time duration tracked was of the initial API call, not the entire operation.

	      * Metrics label tuple would have resulted in many independent histograms stored, one for each disk. (Did not aggregate well).

- Unmounted volumes correctly for reconstructed volumes even if mount operation fails after...

The cri-tools project, which aims to provide consistent tooling for operators to debug and introspect their nodes in production independent of their chosen container runtime, graduated to GA.

### Serverside Apply - Beta 2

`--prune` flag to support deleting previously applied objects that have been removed from the input manifest. This feature has remained in alpha ever since due to performance and correctness issues inherent in its design. This PR exposes a second, independent pruning alpha powered by a new standard named `ApplySets`. An `ApplySet` is a server-side object (by default, a Secret; ConfigMaps are also allowed) that kubectl can use to accurately and efficiently track set membership across `apply` operations....
