Kubernetes primitives that our Cluster Federation control plane
supports, expanding the number of approaches taken to multi-cluster
management (beyond our initial Federation approach), and preparing
to release Federation for general availability ('GA').

### Removal of several beta Kubernetes APIs

- VSphere releases less than 7.0u2 are deprecated as of v1.24. Please consider upgrading vSphere to 7.0u2 or above. vSphere CSI Driver requires minimum vSphere 7.0u2.

- Graduated pod scheduling gates to general availability.
  The `PodSchedulingReadiness` feature gate no longer has any effect, and the
  `.spec.schedulingGates` field is always available within the Pod and PodTemplate APIs. ([#123575](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/123575), [@Huang-Wei](https://github.com/Huang-Wei))
- Graduated support for `minDomains` in pod topology spread constraints, to general availability.
