- Added warnings to the Services API. Kubernetes now warns for Services in the case of:
  - IPv4 addresses with leading zeros
  - IPv6 address in non-canonical format (RFC 5952) ([#114505](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/114505), [@aojea](https://github.com/aojea))

- `VolumeBindingArgs` now allow `BindTimeoutSeconds` to be set as zero, while the value zero indicates no waiting for the checking of volume binding operation. ([#99835](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/99835), [@chendave](https://github.com/chendave)) [SIG Scheduling and Storage]

- Since golang 1.17 both net.ParseIP and net.ParseCIDR rejects leading zeros in the dot-decimal notation of IPv4 addresses,
  Kubernetes will keep allowing leading zeros on IPv4 address to not break the compatibility.
  IMPORTANT: Kubernetes interprets leading zeros on IPv4 addresses as decimal, users must not rely on parser alignment to not being impacted by the associated security advisory:

- Kubernetes api-server now merges selectors built from matchLabelKeys into the labelSelector of topologySpreadConstraints, 
  aligning Pod Topology Spread with the approach used by Inter-Pod Affinity.
  

- kubeadm: removed the deprecated flag `--experimental-output`, please use the flag `--output` instead that serves the same purpose. Affected commands are: `kubeadm config images list`, `kubeadm token list`, `kubeadm upgrade plan`, `kubeadm certs check-expiration`.

## Changelog since v1.18.4

## Changes by Kind

### API Change

- Fixed: log timestamps now include trailing zeros to maintain a fixed width ([#91207](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/91207), [@iamchuckss](https://github.com/iamchuckss)) [SIG Apps and Node]

### Bug or Regression

* When HPAScaleToZero feature gate is enabled HPA supports scaling to zero pods based on object or external metrics. HPA remains active as long as at least one metric value available. ([#74526](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/74526), [@DXist](https://github.com/DXist))
    * To downgrade the cluster to version that does not support scale-to-zero feature:

- The apiserver will now return warnings if you create objects with "invalid" IP or
  CIDR values (like "192.168.000.005", which should not have the extra zeros).
  Values with non-standard formats can introduce security problems, and will
