- Adds two new metrics to cronjobs, a histogram to track the time difference when a job is created and the expected time when it should be created, as well as a gauge for the missed schedules of a cronjob ([#99341](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/99341), [@alaypatel07](https://github.com/alaypatel07))
